During the peak of the Leonid meteor shower on November 17, 1998, HST will be pointed near the anti-radiant for ten hours. Anyone who is interested can submit ideas to STScI for scientific observations during this time. ... At the time of the observations, the nominal V3 position angle is 248.3 degrees, and the STIS/CCD field is centered at RA=22 05 08.6, DEC=-23 25 59. ... There are no HST observations in the archives for objects in this field. ... No parallel observations may be requested. ...

Magnification (Power) And Using Eyepieces . ... To determine power in a telescope, divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece. By exchanging an eyepiece of one focal length for another, you can increase or decrease the power of the telescope. For example, a 25mm eyepiece used on a telescope with a 1000mm focal length would yield a power of 40x (1000 / 25 = 40) and a 10mm eyepiece used on the same telescope would yield a power of 100x (1000 / 10 = 100). ...

... POLYNOM MAP NO | POLYNOM MAP2 NO 2 Changes The new distortion map is based in observations of the G153 eld. ... The previous map had been obtained by tting the measured o set (distorted position minus linear position, or detector minus sky positions) as a polynomial function of the linear (sky) position. ... Therefore what is needed is a function of the measured detector (distorted) position and this is how the new distortion map OM ASTROMET 0010 has been built. ...
