This report describes what an HST observer must do to activate a Target of Opportunity proposal and the steps taken by STScI after the request is received. ... In the request the PI identifies which visit (or visits) to activate and supplies all the information needed to implement and schedule the observation on-board HST. ... If the activation request is not approved, you may re-request it at a later time, until the end of the observing cycle when unexecuted ToO observations are withdrawn. ...

The information path to prepare, perform and reduce a radioastronomical observation, using the Arcos correlator , is schematized in the figure: . The programs reside part on the computer network of the Arcetri Observatory, and part at the Medicina Radio Telescope . All programs running at Arcetri are written for a Sun workstation, and are public domain software, available upon request. Programs running at the telescope are written for a PC with DOS/Windows (or Linux).

... For queued observations, the nightly scheduling will be performed by sta# astronomers using an Operational Toolkit. ... The toolkit will make all observation preparation data available to the oper­ ator, and will allow the definition of queues and timelines of Observation Blocks (OBs). ... The operations team then uses the Operational Toolkit to browse the repos­ itory and build queues, based on object visibility, expected observing conditions, and user­defined scheduling constraints. ...

... He made observations of a supernova (literally: nova= "new star") in 1572 (we now know that a supernova is an exploding star, not a new star). ... Brahe's meticulous observations showed that the supernova did not change positions with respect to the other stars (no parallax). ... This was early evidence against the immutable nature of the heavens, although Brahe did not interpret the absence of parallax for stars correctly, as we discuss below. Brahe made careful observations of a comet in 1577. ...

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF DATABASE . It is a matter of common knoledge, that solar magnetic fields and, in particular, magnetic fields of sunspots, play important role in many solar events. In Pulkovo observatory the long-term data set of daily observations of magnetic fields of solar sunspots was accumulated, which contains great potential for further researches in solar physics. ... Second section includes files containing sum data about magnetic fields for every observational day. ...
