Two teams of astronomers have found that extrasolar planet HAT-P-7b, discovered in 2008, has a retrograde or highly tilted orbit. On May 30, 2009, a Japanese collaboration team led by Norio Narita (National Astronomical Observatory of Japan) used the Subaru Telescope’s High Dispersion Spectrograph (HDS) to observe the HAT-P-7 planetary system, which is about 1000 light-years [...] Related posts:...

$100 just came into NRO for our fundraising drive with this message: See what you can do about reclassifying Pluto as a planet again. Yeah, it's a little off topic, but where will it end? Mercury next? Then Venus? Pretty soon there won't be any "planets" left and then how will the Federation be formed? I have a stake in this as Captain Kirk is due to be born just down the road in a couple...

Pick up a 30-year-old astronomy textbook and you will find more illustrations of planets than actual pictures; Pluto still holds onto its full planet status and exoplanets are theoretical. In the intervening decades, new instruments and methods have acted together to form one giant, interdisciplinary zoom lens on our planetary companions in the solar system. We now not only have hi-res images of planets,...

You may, if you're unlucky, remember the column Larry King wrote for USA Today. It consisted of Larry's trite, if often engagingly goofy, observations on politics, sports, and entertainment. ESPN's magazine still features a column spoofing, sometimes almost too well, King's old column. Herewith is how I imagine Larry would write a feature for this blog. It works best if you imagine King's booming voice...

My eye on the sky The fire signs are well supported again today and if you can get up and go you should be able to access this energy and get an uplift. Many will manage this but some are really under pressure and if you know someone like that, share your buoyant energy if you can. The Sun in Scorpio is still at odds with the detached, overconfident intellectual types. I would not bet against Scorp...

Last night I caught the train to London to attend Rosh Chodesh , the New Moon of Sagittarius. The lecture, as always, was very enlightening. There are two major planets squared this month - Saturn and Pluto. Saturn (apparently) is known as the Big Devil. When Saturn blunders through your chart, you are likely to lose things. If you are in a relationship that isn't working out, it ends. If you have...

In 1924, during Mars's opposition (when Earth , on its inner orbit, passes between the Sun and Mars) the US Navy sent a telegram alerting all its stations to be on the lookout for possible alien contact from the red planet . WOW! Turns out that during the 1924 Mars opposition--when Mars would be closer to Earth than it had been since 1804--the secretary of the Navy sent a telegram to all naval stations...

CLEVELAND, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Ten years ago, Google and eBay had yet to be household names and Pluto was still a planet. But perhaps the most significant change that began in 1999 was when five partners, dissatisfied with the existing hotel franchise model, launched the membership brand Americas Best Value Inn and forever changed the landscape of the hospitality branding industry.

' Solar system ' by Nathan Sawaya Is one of his new creations and it doesn't fail to dissapoint. He makes complex structures look so easy, the only problem is he included Pluto which has been de-classified as a planet ages ago! -Luke, editor

Pluto is no longer a planet. Sorry, folks, those are just the facts. But that doesn’t mean that Pluto will be a lonely exile without any friends. In fact, there are four other dwarf planets to keep it company, and maybe even more on the way. Dwarf planets have been defined by the International Astronomical Union since [...]

For such a small member of the solar system, about which relatively little is known, Pluto has an impressive following. When the news that the ninth planet had been stripped of its planethood got out, the public outcry was immediate. From school children to space enthusiasts, and many in between, people leaped to Pluto’s defense. Read [...]

http://www.myfreehoroscopes.net/astrology/pluto.html Pluto is the outermost planet of the Solar System. It is the farthest from the Sun and thus takes the longest to orbit it. Pluto has also been recently discovered (in the year 1930) and is also called the dim one. Lately, Pluto has been relegated to the status of a dwarf planet. Pluto,Power,The Planet Of Power

Eris Planetary Sphere Watch by Pierre Junod - Post Neptunian Object Inspired Swiss Timepiece The spherical Eris watch is considerably smaller that that, in fact I broke my calculator trying to determine its 32.2mm percentage of the former planet. Eris would have been our tenth planet if Pluto hadn't been shamed into oblivion. Read More From Orginal Site
