... It is notoriously difficult to identify weak cosmic ray events in long exposure observations. ... The method is to compare the probability distribution function (PDF) of cosmic ray events between an observation and a dark frame matched in exposure time. We illustrate the basic idea using dark exposures from a Tek 1024 1024 CCD with varying exposure lengths and read-out times. ... Figure: Histogram of cosmic ray events in a two hour dark frame. ...

... In most astronomical observations the image intensity consists of contributions from both object and sky background. Depending on the complexity of the field and the type of object, different methods are used to estimate and subtract the background intensity. ... Non--linear filters are often used to remove stellar images and other sharp features (see Section ) while extended objects are very difficult to eliminate automatically. ...

... 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. ...
