The beam from each telescope passes through an aluminium tube, which serves to isolate it from the atmosphere, into the beam combining building. ... Inside the beam combining building the outer annulus of each light beam is separated and used in the acquisition and autoguider system. ... A simple algorithm is then used to detect the offset from the centre of the field, and this is corrected using piezo-driven mirrors at the back of the...

... Neutral hydrogen observations of the spiral galaxies NGC 6221 and NGC 6215 with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) reveal a wide, two-stranded bridge of at least 3 x 10^8 Msun which can be traced between the two galaxies over a projected distance of 100 kpc. ... The color figure below shows the HI emission (blue) in the bridge velocity range overlaid onto an optical image. ... A tidal HI bridge is visible between NGC 6221 and its brightest neighbour, NGC 6215 (v_sys = 1555 km/s). ...

... Our recent observations with the Hubble Space Telescope (August 29, 2014) led to revealing a highly isolated dwarf spheroidal galaxy KKs 3 situated at a distance of 2.12 0.07 Mpc from the Milky Way. The dSph galaxy locates on the southern sky (RA=02 h 24 m 44.4 s , Dec.= ... Over the last decade, about 30 dSph galaxies have been discovered inside the Local Group through systematic search in the vicinity of M31 and more that a dozen dSphs were discovered in the nearby group around M81. ...

... The routine processing of STIS data in the calibration ``pipeline" requires an interrelated set of software tasks and databases developed and maintained by many groups at STScI. We present the systems-level design of this calibration pipeline from the perspective of the STIS instrument group at STScI. We describe the multiple interfaces to the pipeline processes that the STIS group works across in an effort to provide for the routine calibration of STIS data. ... For example, the STIS group: . ...

... It s hard to picture just how big the Universe is. ... And the Sun is just one of billions of stars that make up our galaxy, which is called the Milky Way. When you think about how the Milky Way is just one galaxy in a group of about 40 nearby galaxies, the Universe is starting to seem like a big place! ... The picture shows such a big part of the Universe that each galaxy only looks like a little white scratch on the photo! ... Astronomers call this invisible stuff dark matter . ...

... One of the strangest new findings in Earth 's atmosphere are the flashes found high above the thunderstorm clouds. Although the clouds themselves are at low altitudes to be important for ionospheric physics, the flashes can reach altitudes of about 90 km, i.e., the ionospheric E-region, and can thus be relevant also for space physics. The flashes seem to occur all around the world at a rate of at least one flash per minute. ... air glow flash . ... Space Physics Text Book ...
