... Our Galaxy . Milky Way . ... Universe . ... Space Flight . ... Other galaxies are not moving away because they are recoiling in disgust from the Milky Way, but appear to be receding because the Universe is expanding. ... Observers in any galaxy will see every other galaxy as redshifted, so there is nothing special about the Milky Way. ... If the Universe is expanding today, that implies that in the past the galaxies would have been closer together and the Universe was much smaller than it is now. ...
... ARC 3.5m | NICFPS . ... Taking Exposures . ... As with other IR detectors, it has the capability to be read out non-destructively, allowing for multiple readouts per exposure. In NICFPS, the number of times the detector is read out for each exposure is determined by the Fowler Sampling (FS or NFS, Number of Fowler Samples) setting. ... The NFS=0 mode is somewhat unusual for an IR detector; in this mode, the array is reset, the specified exposure time elapses, and then the detector is read out. ...
... We have imaged with milliarcsecond resolution at 5 GHz 374 strong flat-spectrum radio sources north of declination -44 using the VLBA in June 1996. ... The data were processed with the NRAO AIPS software package and the Caltech Difmap package. ... The VLBApls source sample . ... Click on the J2000 IAU name (in the left column) or the alternative name (mostly B1950 IAU names, in the right column) to get more information on a source, including coordinates, redshift, VLBApls images and model components...

... I will touch upon the following points: fast evolution of the sizes of quiescent (elliptical) galaxies between z = 2 and z = 1; prolonged star formation histories of dwarf spheroidal galaxies in the Local Group; apparent lack of external sources of cold gas accretion for the nearby spiral galaxies; old stellar ages and magnesium overabundance of the large-scale disks of nearby lenticular galaxies. ... This discovery has challenged the recognized scenarios of elliptical galaxy evolution. ...
... A Splendid Visit to the Star Hill Inn, New Mexico In November I was fortunate to visit, with my wife Carol, one of the southwest's premier astronomy retreats, the Star Hill Inn north of Las Vegas, NM. ... I spent four nights observing under transparent skies which, when cloud free (one of four nights was pristine while the other three were clear about half the night), revealed magnitude 6.5 stars and, for example, M33 as a naked eye object! ... These efforts should not go unnoticed by AAAP members. ...
