... Without further ado, let me introduce you to the wonderful stylings of Mike Allen.. Under A Dog Day (Night) Sky" . ... Black Forest Star Party" . ... But sometimes a hazy summer night can ruin any motivation for observing. ... Hazy skies usually mean steady skies, and steady air is just what the doctor ordered for observing planets and double stars. ... It has an easily observed 10.6 magnitude central star. ... I next held them to my eyes and checked the field and collimation. ... Mike Allen . ...

... The author attempts to approach the problem from the positions of systems analysis with account for the ideological grounds and history of space activities in Russia and abroad, comparing its current interpretation with the initial goals posed by leading theoreticians and practitioners who stood at the cradle of the space exploration era. ... The space systems recognized in Russia as priority projects are largely developed with violations of the systems approach principles. ...

We cal culate the state vector for the initial orbit for the time t1a and the target one ­ for the time t2 a . ...

... At present, SDSS (ugriz), UKIRT WFCAM (YJHK), ; Johnson-Cousins (UBVRcIc), and 2MASS (J2H2Ks2) ; are supported ; redshift - redfshift of a galaxy ( floating point) ; colour_name - colour identification (string) ; colour_value - value of colour in magnitudes ( floating point) ; should be in the AB mags for ugrizYJHK ; and in Vega mags for Johnson-Cousins/2MASS colours ; ; RETURN VALUE: K-correction in the specified filter for given redshift ; and ...

... During all period of our investigations Dr. N.Sumzina from the Institute of Applied Astronomy of RAS had prepared the Numbered Minor Planet positions from MPC Database for our processing with kind permission of the Director of Minor Planet Center Prof. Braian Marsden. ... Our extensive processing of the MPC data allows us to conclude that CCD observations of the Numbered and Unnumbered Minor Planets have the errors, sometimes very crude. ...

... Выложена полная версия каталога 2MASS в формате SIMFOV и версия программы, поддерживающая этот каталог. ... Звезды в поле зрения изображаются фигурами (кружки, крестики, квадраты), размер которых пропорционален блеску, а цвет определяется спектральным классом, если в каталоге спектр указан. Для каталога TYC_2 звезды изображаются цветом лишь при наличии файла TYC_2.ADD, в котором содержится информация о величинах BT и VT. ... Вывод информации о звездах в текущем поле зрения в файл SIMFOV.OUT . ...
