... From the Northern to the Southern Cross . ... Credit Copyright: Nicholas Buer Explanation: There is a road that connects the Northern to the Southern Cross but you have to be at the right place and time to see it. The road, as pictured above, is actually the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy; the right place, in this case, is dark Laguna Cejar in Salar de Atacama of Northern Chile ; and the right time was in early October, just after sunset. ...

... A similar level of effort is anticipated for HDF-S. We are maintaining a `clearinghouse' for supporting and follow-up observations of the HDF-S. Test observations of the HDF-S field were obtained in October, 1997. ... Simultaneous, parallel observations were made with the three HST instruments STIS, WFPC2 and NICMOS of separate, neighboring fields. ... Additional flanking field observations were made surrounding the deep STIS, WFPC2 and NICMOS fields. ... The red field is the main HDF-S WFPC2 field....

... The SMS program is a critical endeavor to investigate whether the predictions of standard cold dark matter cosmology are consistent with the observed matter distribution in the Milky Way halo. It is the deepest, most extended search for optically elusive dwarf satellite galaxies and tidal streams to date, covering the entire Southern hemisphere. ... However only a few dwarf satellites have been found around the Milky Way to date - 22 dwarfs compared to 500-10,000 predicted by theory (Klypin et al. ...
