... 88, Jan. 1983, p. 1-15. l. A survey of extragalactic radio sources made using driven declination scans is reported covering an area of about 0.07 sr to a limiting flux density of 35 mJy. The fast-scan survey was carried out at a galactic latitude greater than 17 deg with the NRAO 91-m telescope operating at 4.755 GHz, and the 480 sources detected were reobserved at 1.4 GHz with the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center 305-m telescope at Arecibo. ...

home publications > mercury . ... Astronomy Beat . ... Nearly four centuries ago, Galileo's simple observations of Earth's planetary sibling, Venus, buoyed the proponents of a Copernican universe. ... The Italian astronomer had settled into a new house in Florence and had begun to observe Venus, which in November 1610 would have appeared as an evening star, bright in the western sky after dusk. ... From these two observations, Galileo inferred that Venus must orbit closer to the Sun than does Earth. ...

... 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. ...
