... Up: Data Analysis and Processing Techniques . ... Also, a method for quality control of CCD observations is suggested. ... Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

EXPLANATION OF DANA'S FIBER TESTS ON THE 12M TELESCOPE.. ... But we know full well that this is not directly possible- the delay in the optical fiber carrying this signal will change both with temperature and to some degree with fiber bending as the telescope tracks objects or moves from one object to another. ... So we would like to identify at least one pair of single mode fibers in our bundle, whose delay changes due to antenna tracking etc are pretty well matched. ...

... 22.Reference Frames . ... To derive the motion of a penny dropped inside an airliner moving at 600 miles/hr (about 1000 km/hr)--should we calculate it with respect to the interior of the airliner, or with respect to the ground? ... And if a similar penny is let go inside an orbiting spaceship--should its motion be calculated relative to the interior of the spaceship, or relative to the Earth outside? ... How do observations differ in the two frames--the airliner cabin and the Earth? ...
