1990 (MCMXC) was a common year starting on Monday (dominical letter G) of the Gregorian calendar, the 1990th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 990th year of the 2nd millennium, the 90th year of the 20th century, and the 1st year of the 1990s decade.
Important events of 1990 include the Reunification of Germany and Yemeni unification, the formal beginning of the Human Genome Project (finished in 2003), the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope, the separation of Namibia from South Africa, and the Baltic states declaring independence from the Soviet Union amidst Perestroika. Yugoslavia's communist regime collapses amidst increasing internal tensions and multiparty elections held within its constituent republics result in separatist governments being elected in most of the republics marking the beginning of the breakup of Yugoslavia. Also in this year began the crisis that would lead to the Gulf War in 1991 following the Iraqi invasion and the largely internationally unrecognized annexation of Kuwait resulting in a crisis in the Persian Gulf involving the issue of the sovereignty of Kuwait and fears by Saudi Arabia over Iraqi aggression against their oil fields near Kuwait, this resulted in Operation Desert Shield being enacted with an international coalition of military forces being built up on the Kuwaiti-Saudi border with demands for Iraq to peacefully withdraw from Kuwait. Also in this year, Nelson Mandela was released from prison, and Margaret Thatcher resigned as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom after over 11 years.
The perihelion is the point in the orbit of a planet, minor planet, or comet, where it is nearest to the Sun. It is the opposite of aphelion, which is the point in the orbit where the celestial body is farthest from its Sun.
The word "perihelion" stems from the Ancient Greek words "peri", meaning "near", and "helios", meaning "the Sun". "Aphelion" derives from the preposition "apo", meaning "away, off, apart". (The similar words "perigee" and "apogee" refer to the nearest and furthest points in some object's orbit around a planet.)
According to Kepler's first law of planetary motion, all planets, comets, and asteroids in the Solar System have approximately elliptical orbits around the Sun. (Any single revolution of a body around its parent object is only approximately elliptical, because precession of the perihelion prevents the orbit from being a simple closed curve such as an ellipse.) Hence, an orbiting body has a closest and a farthest point from its parent object, that is, a perihelion and an aphelion, known collectively as apsides. Orbital eccentricity measures the flatness (departure from a perfect circle) of the orbit.

Nibiru & Earth Change Updates - ARE WE CLOSE??? with Gerald Clark on his new 7th Planet Broadcast - Episode 001. =============== Show Details: =============== We have an easy way to test whether the orbital chart is to scale. 1. The distance to Pluto to the Sun is 3.67 billion miles 2. We have a linear measurement using the red line pointing to the orbital path of Pluto. It is 1.46 inches in the image I used. Does not matter what size the picture printed is or if it is measured onscreen, as long as the relationship is not changed by rescaling along one axis. 3. Next we can measure the distance from the Sun to where Dr. Harrington is pointing in the above image, taken from the video just played. This yellow line in the version I measured came out to 2.65 inches. 4. Now using...

90377 Sedna is a trans-Neptunian object and a likely dwarf planet discovered by Michael Brown (Caltech), Chad Trujillo (Gemini Observatory) and David Rabinowitz (Yale University) on November 14, 2003. It is currently 88 AU from the Sun, about three times as distant as Neptune. For most of its orbit Sedna is farther from the Sun than any other known dwarf planet candidate. Sedna has a highly elliptical orbit, with its aphelion estimated at 975 AU and its perihelion at about 76.16 AU. At its discovery it was approaching perihelion and about 89.6 AU from the Sun. At the time of its discovery it was the most distant object in the solar system yet observed; although the orbits of some objects—like long-period comets—extend farther than that of Sedna, they are basically too dim to be observed ...

Cruciform was perhaps one of the most significant Australian metal bands of the early 1990s, playing a slow and heavy form of death/doom long before most others. Cruciform could well have gone on to take a serious role on the worldwide stage but internal conflicts sadly tore the group apart on the verge of international recognition. The band developed a style similar to that of early recordings by Anathema and Paradise Lost featuring slow, lingering riffs and epic arrangements and rose to the forefront of Sydney's metal scene with Atavism in 1993, the first release for Warhead Records, whose owner Brad Sims was also the band's manager. Following this Daniel Moth was replaced by Matt Seldon and the group's sound engineer Simon Gruer joined Cruciform as lead vocalist and keyboard player. I...
