A group of British
astronomers exposed the largest known structures in the universe. This is a
group linked by a single gravitational field of active galactic nuclei, which make
bigger from one end to 4 billion light years away. Scientifically verbal
communication, the structure is a large group of quasars.

ALMA makes gas flows visible on the planet formation
Astronomers using the
Atacama Large Millimeter / submillimeter Array (ALMA) for the first time to
directly observe how extensive gas streams overcome a gap in the disk of matter
around a young star. In theory, should such gas streams arise during the growth
phase of planets? This is a key stage in the birth of the gas giants. The
observations are the second January 2013 published in the journal Nature.

New View of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae
Globular clusters 47
Tucanae are huge spherical cloud of old stars held together by gravity. They
are turning around the cores of galaxies, and satellites orbiting Earth. These
groups of stars contain very little gas and dust - it is believed that most of
the cluster has been driven by winds and explosions of stars it contains, or
has been torn by the interstellar gas has been interacting with the cluster.
Any remaining material coalesced into stars billions of years ago.

Reverse Effect: Eruption of climate
The eruption can cause
climate change, no doubt. Supervolcanoes that send to the stratosphere many
tons of ash may affect the global climate. But it appears that perhaps the
reverse effect: the German and American scientists have found evidence that
climate can change the activity of volcanoes.
This is something new!
However, researchers at Harvard University in collaboration with the center
GEOMAR know what they say on their side - the results of the analysis of
volcanic deposits in the last million years.

Mars rover Curiosity explores lowland Yellowknife Bay
The Mars rover
Curiosity, a key element of the mission Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) NASA
resumed traffic January 3 and drove right up to the twisting geological
formation, called Snake river ("Zmeistaya river").
Snake River is a thin
curved line of dark rock, running through between flat slabs of lighter rocks
and towering over the sand. Curiosity rover science team plans to study this
form of relief in detail, before switching to other nearby rocks.
Maximum of solar activity in 2013 is expected to be the weakest
Maximum activity this
year is likely to be the weakest in at least the last 100 years, according to
NASA scientists observing the nearest star to the Earth every day.
The number of sunspots
is low, despite the fact that the sun is close to the maximum of its 11-year
activity cycle. Furthermore, the intensity of radio waves, usually pointing to
the high solar activity, also significantly reduced.

The first direct detection sheds light on dark galaxies
Most people think of
the giant galaxies as islands of stars, gas and dust that block our universe
with its light. Theory, however, predicts that there are other types of
galaxies, devoid of stars, and consisting mainly of dense gas. These
"dark" galaxies you can not see on the black background of the
universe.
Now an international
team of astronomers has found a few bright galaxies, watching the glow of
hydrogen these galaxies, UV-induced nearby quasar HE0109-3518.
