... Up: Future Instruments and Telescopes, Tools . ... New Generation Astronomical Telescopes (NGAT), a class of telescopes designed to be operated remotely and robotically, require efficient methods for communicating images over heterogeneous and low-bandwidth data networks such as the Internet. ... Methods researched thus far involve the classification of astronomical images based on object parameterisation, progressive image transmission, and evaluation of existing image compression schemes. ...

GRANAT is the Russian x-ray sattelite launched to the high apogee orbit (200,000 km) and operated almost for 10 years (1989 -1999) , carrying out four major instruments: French SIGMA coded-mask hard x-ray telescope (30-1000 keV), Soviet ART-P coded-mask telescope (2??-60?? keV), all-sky monitor WATCH (6-150 keV), and a gamma-burst detector PHEBUS . ... Since September 1994, GRANAT is in the survey mode. ... Explore pages devoted to individual GRANAT instruments (including main scientific results): . ...

. This diagram illustrates the boxes generated by a UL list with two LI list items. There are two parts to the illustration. The first shows the actual rendering of the boxes generated by the list elements. Background colors and border styles vary to delimit the box areas. The second shows the same rendering, but the content, padding, border, and margin edges of each box are shown explicitly. In particular, the illustration shows how vertical margins between the LI boxes collapse. Return to image.
