... Dr. Rodrigues, M1 group, Spain, has pointed out the confusion in identification of SN 1998ar in NGC 2916. ... I have measured the locations of point-like sources around NGC 2916 with DSS-1 image and 5 GSC stars. ... The magnitude of this star is estimated as 15.5 mag or so on DSS1 image. ... Star C seems to be dimmer than Star B, and comparing GSC 14.8 mag star and fainter neighbouring stars, its magnitude is about 1.5 mag dimmer than GSC 14.8 mag star; which tells that SN was about 16.3 mag. ...

... August 6, 1998 . Infrared Horsehead . ... Explanation: This famous cosmic dust cloud was imaged in infrared light by the European Space Agency's Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) satellite. The false-color picture shows the bright infrared emission from dust and molecular gas in part of the Orion star forming region surrounding the Horsehead Nebula . In visible light, the horsehead-shaped dust cloud looks dark against a background of bright glowing gas. ... About APOD > . ...

... The distance scales of the objects are matched both by comparing the first derivatives of the angular velocity determined separately from radial velocities and proper motions and by the statistical-parallax method. ... Good agreement between the inferred 0 and our calculations based on space velocities suggests that the Lindblad relation holds throughout the entire sample volume. ... Brandt and Blitz (1993) published the distances and radial velocities for a total of 206 H II-regions. ... Astron. ...
