... The history of star formation was successfully analyzed for the first time based on the spectra of the stellar population of dwarf galaxies of low surface brightness outside the Local Group. We have investigated the stellar population of two dwarf spheroidal galaxies KDG61 and KDG64 in the central part of a close group of galaxies M81. ... These galaxies are dominated by the old stellar population (12-14 billion years) of low metallicity ([Fe/H] ~ -1.5). ... KDG61 . ... KDG64 ...

... Radio astronomers at Arecibo Observatory observe a wide variety of phenomena in the Milky Way and in other galaxies. ... Some REU projects are carried out on pre-existing data, and others rely on obtaining new data. ... Deriving a new shape model from existing radar images has been a popular student project in past years, and there are data sets that could be used for this. We are collecting thermal infrared emission data for many of the near-Earth asteroids that are also observed with radar. ...

... Credit Copyright: SEN / Damian Peach Explanation: Yesterday, a comet passed very close to Mars. In fact, Comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) passed closer to the red planet than any comet has ever passed to Earth in recorded history. To take advantage of this unique opportunity to study the close interaction of a comet and a planet, humanity currently has five active spacecraft orbiting Mars: NASA's MAVEN , MRO , Mars Odyssey , as well as ESA 's Mars Express , and India 's Mars Orbiter . ...
