... That's only about бе45.50.. ... The minum tube length is 700mm, but you could reduce that to 620mm by temporarily removing the focussing mount, so it would be quite easy to transport for anyone thinking of travelling abroad for the Transit of Venus in June. ... That separation is just a bit more than the field of view of average binoculars, so you'll have to sweep just a bit below right from Venus. ... Mercury will be fractionally higher closer to Venus, at the same time tomorrow evening. ...

... The remote planet Pluto and its moon Charon orbit the Sun at a mean distance of almost 6,000 million kilometres, or nearly fourty times farther out than the Earth. During a recent investigation by an international group of astronomers [1], the best picture ever of Pluto and Charon [2] was secured with the European Space Agency's Faint Object Camera at the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). ... The new HST image was taken when Charon was near its maximum elongation from Pluto (0.9 arcseconds). ...

... At high count rates, the video processing unit (VPU) of the FOC undercounts photon events, resulting in a nonlinear count rate. ... The FOC remains linear to much higher count rates for point sources than for uniform sources. ... Here, a uniform source is defined to be one in which the flux varies by less than +/- 10% on scales of 10 pixels, and the nonlinearity threshold is defined to be the count rate at which the FOC exhibits nonlinearity at the 10% level. ... 512 zoom x 1024 . ... 256 x 256 . ...

Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ... Truly it is a Low Surface Brightness Galaxy. ...

... The Galactic low-mass X-ray binary GS 2023+338 was discovered during the burst on May 22, 1989 with the Japanise satellite Ginga (aka Galaxy). The flux reached 17 crabs (this unit of flux measurement is an bright X-ray source, Crab Nebula) at 10-35 keV. ... No other radio telescope worldwide carried out multi-frequency measurements. ... Upon 14 days the radio flux fell below the detection level at the RATAN-600 in relation to the decrease of the X-ray flux. ...
