The Coolest Stars Come Out of the Dark
(PhysOrg.com) — Astronomers have uncovered what appear to be 14 of the coldest stars known in our universe. These failed stars, called brown dwarfs, are so cold and faint that they’d be impossible to see with current visible-light telescopes. Spitzer’s infrared vision was able to pick out their feeble glow, much as a firefighter uses infrared goggles to find hot spots buried underneath a dark … read more…

Resolved Question: Will this scientific, indisputable proof of Global Warming finally silence the deniers?
[R]esearchers looked at the infrared spectrum of long-wave radiation from a region over the Pacific Ocean, as well as from the entire globe. The data came from two different spacecraft?the NASA’s Nimbus 4 spacecraft, which surveyed the planet with an Infrared Interferometric Spectrometer (IRIS) between April 1970 and January 1971, and the Japanese ADEO satellite, which utilized the Interferometric Monitor of Greenhouse Gases (IMG) instrument, starting in 1996. To ensure that the data were reliable and comparable, the team looked only at readings from the same three-month period of the year (April to June) and adjusted them to eliminate the effects of cloud cover. The findings indicated long-term changes in atmospheric CH4, CO2, ozone (O3) and CFC 11 and 12 concentrations and, consequently, a significant increase in the earth’s greenhouse effect

Resolved Question: Should Astronomers re-estimate how many stars are in our galaxy, taking into account small globular clusters?
100,000 undiscovered stars so close to us.
HIDDEN CLUSTERS
FSR 1735 is a globular cluster located about 30,000 ly away toward the inner region of our Galaxy. Heavy concentrations of intervening dust have obscured the visible light of background objects. Because of this, this cluster is a recent discovery. Astronomers surveyed the region in infrared light.
It is estimated to contain upwards of 100,000 stars in a space approx of 7 ly. Less than twice the distance between the sun and Proxima Centauri!
Cosmo, the current estimate has been unchanged for decades. Somewhere between 100 and 400 billion stars, not trillion.
This was calculated as I say, decades ago by carefully counting small but representative regions of stars in our galaxy and extrapolating the remainder.
That’s quite a leap from 400 billion to 3 trillion!!!
Great Answer by the way, as always.

Resolved Question: What are they hiding here?
Go to NASA’s virtual observatory at http://skyview.gsfc.nasa.gov
The following coordinates are supposedly derived from the Avebury Crop Circle.
Reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJN7kQmkxmk
The coordinates are 13 47 55 -8 29 47
Use the coordinates on the SkyView Query Form under the IRAS 25 Micron survey. You will see the objects clearly. You can use a couple of other Infrared filters. Some are blocked/blurred out, but there are a few they missed.
I think we should keep our eyes on this. This all seems very suspicious, especially because you can go to other sites such as skywiki.org, use these coordinates and it is clearly blocked out.
What are they hiding? Could it be Niburu, planet X, Eris or whatever they are calling it now? They are obviously hiding something from us here.
OK… since some of you think this is a glitch, take a look at this. Here is a more clear view of the same coordinates: http://skyview.gsfc.nasa.gov/userimages/skv24143913367465.html
