... We intend to use the restored HST to study age structure and chemical evolution of the stellar population at the center of the LMC. ... To study the reduction techniques needed, a set of simulated PC images have been made. ... Two of the generally available photometric software packages, ROMAFOT and DAOPHOT, have been used to analyse the images. Results show that the photometric accuracy reached with these packages is not enough for high precision photometry in this configuration. ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

. This spectacular view of the crater Degas was obtained as a high-resolution targeted observation (296 feet [90 meters] per pixel). Impact melt coats its floor, and as the melt cooled and shrank, it formed the cracks observed across the crater. For context, Mariner 10т??s view of Degas is shown at left. Degas is 32 miles (52 kilometers) in diameter and is centered at 37.1ТА N, 232.8ТА E. NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Carnegie Institution of Washington
