The overdensity corresponds to a Zone-of-Avoidance crossing of the Perseus-Pisces Supercluster filament. Although it is known that this filament contains an X-ray galaxy cluster (3C 129) hosting two strong radio galaxies, little is known about galaxies associated with this potentially rich cluster because of the high Galactic dust extinction.

  • The Basis of Symmetrical Astrology
    The Basis of Symmetrical Astrology Overview: Why Symmetrical Astrology? Astrology needs to create its future form. While many astrologers have seized astrology’s history and others have integrated modern psychological forms into the field, the technique for the future growth of astrology needs definition in modern technical terms and methods. Without a new definition and direction, astrology has no future, only a past. Symmetrical Astrology is not a school or the teachings of a specific set of ideas. It is an anchor to ground astrological ideas to a fixed point and this fixed point should allow unlimited development of astrological innovations in all directions. As the future techniques of the regenerated field of astrology are integrated and the face of astrology revitalizes and merges into the larger social collective, then Symmetrical Astrology will have served its purpose as a launching pad for the future and can wither away. Introduction: Finding the Future of Astrology There is no doubt that astrology experienced a major reawakening broken into several segments during the twentieth century after a long period of decay in the learned minds of the world. With the first great reawakening people began to rediscover the astrological craft in the late 1800’s with the coming Neptune-Pluto conjunction in 1892 and what they found was pretty anemic and frail. Astrologers had more folklore guiding them than organized knowledge and scholars that had to work with the subject treated it with abhorrence and contempt. During the early part of the last century, a cottage industry began to grow around the reintroduction of these ideas.

Type II Supernovae Preface This volume applies the physical laws and principles of the universe of motion to a consideration of the large-scale structure and properties of that universe, the realm of astronomy. Inasmuch as it presupposes nothing but a familiarity with physical laws and principles, it is self-contained in the same sense as any other publication in the astronomical field. However, the laws and principles applicable to the universe of motion differ in many respects from those of the conventional physical science. For the convenience of those who may wish to follow the development of thought all the way from the fundamentals, and are not familiar with the theory of the universe of motion, I am collecting the most significant portions of the previously published books and articles dealing with that theory, and incorporating them, together with the results of some further studies, into a series of volumes with the general title The Structure of the Physical Universe.

While this manual that you will enjoy this telescope for years to come! is intended to assist you in the set-up and basic use of this instrument, it does not cover everything you might like to know about astronomy. Although SpaceStation will give a respectable tour of the night sky, it is recommended you get a very simple star chart and a flashlight with a red bulb or red cellophane over the end. For objects other than stars and constellations, a basic guide to astronomy is a must. Some recommended sources appear on our website at www.Tasco.com. Also on our website will be current events in the sky for suggested viewing. But, some of the standbys that you can see are: The Moon—a wonderful view of our lunar neighbor can be enjoyed with any magnification. Try viewing at different phases of the moon. Lunar highlands, lunar maria (lowlands called “seas” for their dark coloration), craters, ridges and mountains will astound you. Saturn—even at the lowest power you should be able to see Saturn’s rings and moons.

We report new VLBA polarimetric observations of the compact steep-spectrum (CSS) quasar 3C 147 (B0538 + 498) at 5 and 8.4 GHz. Methods. By using multifrequency VLBA observations, we derived milliarcsecond-resolution images of the total intensity, polarisa- tion, and rotation measure distributions, by combining our new observations with archival data. Results. The source shows a one-sided structure, with a compact region, and a component extending about 200 mas to the south-west. The compact region is resolved into two main components with polarised emission, a complex rotation measure distribution, and a magnetic field dominated by components perpendicular to the source axis. Conclusions. By considering all the available data, we examine the possible location of the core component, and discuss two possible interpretations of the observed structure of this source: core-jet and lobe-hot spot. Further observations to unambiguously determine the location of the core would help distinguish between the two possibilities discussed here.
