Thank You

Dear Harry, Thank you so much for editing the typo in Mills Observatory page. Much appreciated. --Cyril Thomas 13:03, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Pneumatics

Just saw your edit on the pneumatics page, and it reminded me of something I ran across. My father works in an oil refinery, and up until fairly recently all the instrumentation was pneumatic. He is aware of accidents happening where the instrumentation was running on nitrogen, and this resulted in the death of the control room operators when a leak occurred. Pneumatic controllers even have a dedicated exhaust port for times when you're not running air. --Paul Anderson (talk) 19:11, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As your changes are challenged, please make your case on the talk page, rather than reverting. Thank you. --Ckatzchatspy 22:06, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Solar System

Planets and dwarf planets of the Solar System; while the sizes are to scale, the relative distances from the Sun are not.

The Solar System[a] consists of the Sun and those celestial objects bound to it by gravity. These objects are the eight planets and their 166 known moons;[1] four dwarf planets and their four known moons; and billions of small bodies, including asteroids, Kuiper belt objects, comets, meteoroids, and interplanetary dust.

In broad terms, the charted regions of the Solar System and their constituents, in order of their distance from the Sun are:

Beyond the scattered disc is the Heliopause, an ovoid region of space named for the interaction of the solar wind with the interstellar medium, and not for any population of celestial objects.

The edge of the Solar System is the hypothetical Oort cloud, believed to contain comets.

Unlike other categories of named celestial objects, dwarf planet objects can be found in more than one region of the solar system; the Asteroid Belt; the Kuiper Belt; and the Scattered Disc.
