Astronomy and cosmology
Astronomy
- Alfvén resonator
- Fermion Ball - [1][2]
- Habitable Planets for man - a book by Stephen Dole and Isaac Asimov. [3][4][5]
- Orbital normal - unit vector perpendicular to the orbital plane; probably a dictdef.
- Orbital seasons - seasons caused by a planet in an eccentric orbit moving closer to and further from its sun.
- Projection effect (astronomy) (2011) - superluminal motion, retrograde motion of the planets, optical double, &c.
- Rock Comet (2012) - In the Physical characteristics and meteor shower section of 3200 Phaethon, it says 'Phaethon has been referred to as a "rock comet".'
- Speculations about methods for mankind to survive after future catastrophic events in the evolution of the Solar System and the Universe (2011) - perhaps just call it Human survival, as a contrast to Human extinction? We do have Space and survival and Geoengineering.
- List of celestial objects according to size (2012) - as I've read articles on this site about moons of other planets, they mention it's size (i.e. Pluto is the 10th largest known object in the solar sytem). I tried and I could not find a list of objects according to size that included all of the moons of all planets and dwarf planets.
- Light Lag (2012) - This is more of a lead in to an idea I had about future military space tactics, when light lag over a distance would prove a problem for different sides trying to gage enemy strength, direction, and numbers if/when FTL travel is possible. Example - military force A attempts to make their force look larger to military force B than it is so they would, say, exit FTL at four light hrs from a target, remain there for one hour, FTL to a distant location for a period of time, then FTL back to only five light minutes to the target, at the same instant that their original light is ariving from their original exit from FTL, giving the impresion that there are twice as many vessels exiting FTL than there actualy are. This could be duplicated as many times as nessesary. However, due to degridation of light over distances (distance from points A to B is the same between B to C, though light intencity is not half that of A to B, but intead 1/4 between B to C) it could be detected with sensitive enough equipment. Sorry, but there are no reliable sources for this yet. Also, this would be more suited for a Military Sci-Fi section than here, based on the examples you gave.
- Conjectures for the Origin of Universe (2013) - A list containing various existing conjectures for origin of Universe.
- --Timeline of cosmology is a long list of various theories through history. The current, established theory is the Big Bang. -- Gorthian (talk) 20:42, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
- There us a program called CHView that seems to no longer be under development where you could model an interstellar civilization against an accurate 3D map of the local stars. The link is: http://www.nova.org/~sol/chview/ .

- what is the furtherest man made signal from earth, how far is it? ( voyager 1 being the furtherest man made object )
- Tidal truncation radius - Oort Cloud tidal effects
- Stern–Levison parameter - Is it big enough to be a planet? Some articles (Clearing the neighbourhood, Dwarf planet, IAU definition of planet, 90377 Sedna) refer to the Stern–Levison parameter, which is >>1 for planets (typically >1), and <<1 for dwarf planets (typically <1). Happily there seem not be any objects with Λ ≈ 1.
