Large FTP archives have long used mirrors (copies of the network archive maintained on remote hosts) to decrease the load on a particular server or shorten the network path to provide faster download times. Little has been done however to simplify mirroring of WWW (World Wide Web) pages, although many projects and users now rely on Web pages at least as heavily as anonymous FTP services. ...

... AstroAsciiData is a Python module to handle ASCII tables. ... The idea to develop this Python module emerged from the fact that ASCII tables continue to be one of the most popular and widely used data exchange formats in astronomy and probably science in general. ... To load this ASCII table, go into Python, load the AstroAsciiData module and read in the table with: . ... demo = asciidata.open('webexa.txt') . ... Users who only want to work with ASCII tables neeed no further python modules. ...

So what is "Code Blue" and what does it mean? It's no great secret that several years ago we had the mirror re-coated on the 31" Blue Beast at Warren Rupp Observatory, and within a few short weeks, portions of the coating began to fail. ... These are the fellows that showed up at the Observatory on February 20th to help with the gargantuan and nail-biting task of getting mirror out of the telescope safely, out of the cell safely, into the box safely, and put into the truck safely. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Mad Science . ... The color of light is determined by the wavelength: the long wavelengths make red light, somewhat shorter makes yellow, shorter even than that makes blue. ... The red light gets reflected by the shirt and into your eye. ... A perfect mirror does actually reflect all light hitting it. ... A mirror, on the other hand, reflects the blue and red light in the same direction, and so the mirror actually builds an image of the source of the light. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

RTT150 . ... This optical scheme is similar to 1:7.7 system but has the different parameters of secondary mirror 2 and corrector 3. Primary mirror 1 reflects light to the secondary mirror 2 which collects it on the focal surface of system. Lens corrector 3 is placed between focal surface and the secondary mirror which allows to obtain large flat linear field of 100 mm diameter. Focal length, mm . ... Linear field of view, mm . ...

... Another option is to buy slides of astronomical objects at different wavelengths to show students why astronomers use different bands of the spectrum to bring out specific characteristics in celestial objects. ... He then uses the camera to scan the entire classroom, asking students to identify what they are seeing. ... Once students see light in action, they can investigate its properties - such as frequency, wavelength, and interference - with wave experiments. ...

. There are several different shells available for Unix; the most popular are described here. You can use any one of these shells if they are available on your system. And you can switch between the different shells once you have found out if they are available. Bourne shell (sh) . C shell (csh) . TC shell (tcsh) . Korn shell (ksh) . Bourne Again SHell (bash) .
