A special report by Katie Barnard on her work experience at Narrabri . ... I have been interested in astronomy for some time, and so I thought work experience would be a good idea to see what it was really like. ... In my time at the ATCA, I worked with Naomi McClure-Griffiths, a PhD student from the university of Minnesota. ... Naomi gave me some `cubes' (seen as movies) of different sections of the sky, from observations at Parkes, to look through and identify possible shells. ...

... On the left is a normal star field containing the constellation Orion. ... A Wolf-Rayet Star Blows Bubbles . ... Wolf-Rayet stars can blow bubbles. ... All extremely massive stars will eventually evolve though a Wolf-Rayet phase. ... Wolf-Rayet stars generate bubbles because they continually eject their outer atmosphere as a stellar wind. ... Although Aurora might first appear to be moonlit clouds, they only add light to the sky, and hence can not block background stars from view. ... X-Ray Earth . ...

... January 5, 1997 . Too Close to a Black Hole . ... Explanation : What would you see if you went right up to a black hole ? ... On the right is the same star field but this time with a black hole superposed in the center of the frame. The black hole has such strong gravity that light is noticeably bent towards it - causing some very unusual visual distortion. In the distorted frame, every star in the normal frame has at least two bright images - one on each side of the black hole . ...

... You can boot Linux either from a floppy or from the hard disk. ... When booting Linux from a floppy disk, the boot sector contains code that just reads the first few hundred blocks (depending on the actual kernel size, of course) to a predetermined place in memory. On a Linux boot floppy, there is no filesystem, the kernel is just stored in consecutive sectors, since this simplifies the boot process. ... For example, when I boot, I it looks like this: љ љ љ љ LILO boot: Loading linux. ...
