This source is hiding behind our Galaxy at a distance of ~18 Mpc, located at a galactic latitide of 0 degrees. ... As we look towards longer wavelengths, 60 micron, to try and penetrate the Galactic Plane, we still see confusion from galactic sources. ... If the image seems some what confusing that is because the MOST is a continuum radio telescope and when it looks in the direction of our Galaxy it detects radiation from sources within our Galaxy and from sources that may lie behind our Galaxy. ...

Extracting spectra from a large number of NICMOS grism images requires a convenient interactive tool which allows a user to manipulate direct/grism image pairs. ... NICMOSlook and Calnic-C are two programs that were designed to take advantage of the fact that the NICMOS grism mode typically consists of taking both a direct and a grism image. ...

The reduction of a given magnitude m to it is given by: . ... The galaxy extraction was made with a Discriminant Analysis based on seven parameters (peak intensity over area, Mean surface brightness, Peak intensity, Axis ratio, Relative surface object/matrix, Elongation of the matrix and Diffraction cross) and calibrated with a sample of 1146 DENIS objects visually classified as "galaxy", "star" or "unknown". A visual inspection of every galaxy candidate was made on the matrix of pixels. ...

One of my on-going research interests concerns the dust shells of proto-planetary nebulae or PPNs (also called pre-planetary nebulae, transition objects, and post-AGB objects in the literature; the latter term also applies to a wider selection of objects such as RV Tauri stars), especially the carbon-rich ones that show the unidentified "21 micron' emission feature. ... I am working to find a complete sample of proto-planetary nebulae in these satellite galaxies from the millions of detected stars. ...

... Astronomy news . ... NASA's Spitzer Images Out-of-This-World Galaxy . ... It is spiral-shaped like our Milky Way, with long, spindly arms of stars. The "eye" at the center of the galaxy is actually a monstrous black hole surrounded by a ring of stars. In this color-coded infrared view from Spitzer, the area around the invisible black hole is blue and the ring of stars, white. ... The ring around the black hole is bursting with new star formation. ...

... Credit: NASA , ESA , H. Lee H. Ford ( Johns Hopkins U. ) Explanation: What are those strange blue objects? Many of the brightest blue images are of a single, unusual, beaded, blue, ring-like galaxy which just happens to line-up behind a giant cluster of galaxies. ... A blue smudge near the cluster center is likely another image of the same background galaxy. In all, a recent analysis postulated that at least 33 images of 11 separate background galaxies are discernable. ...
