HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE - Continuing to collect World Class Science DAILY REPORT      # 4591 PERIOD COVERED: UT April 16, 2008 (DOY 107) OBSERVATIONS SCHEDULED ACS/SBC/WFPC2 11230 HST FUV Observations of Brightest Cluster Galaxies: The Role of Star Formation in Cooling Flows and BCG Evolution The intracluster medium (ICM) now appears to be a very dynamic place where heating and cooling processes vie for dominance and an uneasy equilibrium is maintained. Since these same processes may operate ...Continue Reading

Concordance cosmogony makes that prediction. It is, however, a prediction of extrasolar planetary system architecture as yet untested by direct observation for main sequence stars other than the Sun. To provide such a test, we propose to c ...Continue Reading
