. As you ascend the stairs next to the clubhouse, you get to see the observatory up close. We have an observing table lighted with red lights. Some of our extreme DSO's don't even want them on! . The black box looking thing on the observatory, just below the dome, is actually a speaker so we can pipe in music. Not shown in the picture to the left is the attic above the clubhouse.

The foundation of my research program is in astrophysics, where almost all of our knowledge of the universe beyond our solar system derives from detecting light that has been emitted, absorbed, or scattered by atoms. Fascinating phenomena occur over times often too fast for us to recognize without instruments and an understanding of the fundamental physics. ... Software for physics and astronomy . ...

Загрузить программу (~10 MB). ... Программа izmccd предназначена для высокоточной астрометрической обработки числовых изображений небесных объектов. Программа позволяет получать как измеренные, так и экваториальные координаты малых планет, комет, спутников больших планет, визуально-двойных звезд и других объектов, а также идентифицировать уже известные малые планеты и найти на числовых изображениях движущиеся объекты. ... Программа является бесплатной. ... Автоматическая обработка, один объект. ...
