Seeking facts on sister solar system of Planet X (Nibiru) that will cross
our solar system's ecliptic by between February 2011 and March 2013. Also,
I am seeking astronomical coordinates of Nibiru as observed from position

  Computing Upper-Limits for IRAS...         


Author: poorrichard

Hello. I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to explain, or point
me to some reference that explains, how to determine the upper-limits for
censored objects in the IRAS surveys.

If I am not mistaken, the running rms was not kept track of because of the
limitations of the system then. So how does one get a good estimate of it?

TIA

  unnamed star cloud?

This might sound presumptuous, but just in case it isn't:

On Google Sky I have run into something about which I believe that it
might exist, even though I have never heard about it before. And since
I don't know how to call it, I have provisionally dubbed it "Holm's
Cloud" (pardon, it's just for internal use). It appears to me as a
detached piece of the Milky Way containing some ISM. Even though it
also appears to me as characterized more by the presence of that ISM,
than by an increase in the stellar density. It is, of course, best
visible at low magnification (ca. 20+ field). Below are my
annotations:

  [WWW] Request for Review of a pre-print book titled, "Fundamental Nature of         


Author: GSS
Date: May 21, 2008 02:09

Friends,
I have been taking part in various sci.physics discussion forums on
usenet for almost a decade now. Even though I found these discussions
quite useful, still I failed to communicate my viewpoint to most of
the readers. Perhaps, communication of a certain viewpoint in bits and
pieces cannot be expected to 'stick', to have any permanent
impression. Therefore, I have now compiled all the bits and pieces of
my un-orthodox viewpoint into a new book titled, "Fundamental Nature
of Matter and Fields". Keeping in view the nature of contents, I want
to get it reviewed by the competent readership of the usenet forums,
before getting this book formally printed. I also want to get
suitable feedback for improving the presentation and readability of
this book.

You may kindly download 1.7 M pdf file of the book from,

  CMB temperature: cooling down or... heating up???         


Author: pkarwow
Date: May 8, 2008 02:23

Hello.

This is a strictly technical question related to famous
Cosmic Microwave Background problem. As we know
a couple of years ago Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy
Probe has measured detailed temperature of CMB with
accuracy of 5 places after the dot, so it's value is now
assumed to be 2,726xx degree Kelwin (correct me
please with the exact number). I am highly interested
and I hope members of s.a.r discussion group can
give me an detailed answer - if it is planned and if
- also when those plans can be realized: I mean here:
detailed measurement of the CMB temperature up to
the 9-th or 10-th place after the dot? I'd like also to get
an answer if there are any visions of steady monitoring
of the CMB temperature actually on schedule of NASA
or any other space agencies?

In order to be less mysterious: I am an author of
developed for many years and still unpublished so
called: Burning Quarks Hypothesis, which is actually
a pretty complicated set of 2 main ideas related...

  "Fractal Cosmology" entry in Wikipedia         


Author:
Date: May 2, 2008 14:32

Recently an entry on the subject of "Fractal Cosmology" was added to
Wikipedia. Better late than never. You might want to take a look since
it may be an important paradigm for the 21st century.

In a related development, Pietronero (paper in preparation, personal
communication) has alerted me to the fact that the latest SDSS data
release provides compelling evidence for fractal clustering to the
limits of the survey, and continuing inconsistency with the assumption
of cosmological homogeneity.

These are interesting times for cosmology.
