... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

... Some of the functions that go into designing a tower have been left for SNEAKERS to handle. ... A connector can only be placed on top of a support. ... The supports are placed on top of each other at various angles. ... The system determines the ideal angle from the end of the last support to the designed top of that leg of the tower. ... The maximum angle allowed is , so that the tower will continue to be designed toward the goal at the top. Connectors are always placed on top of supports. ...

... To plot the data (and model, here xitau.model), I have read the model, computed the model values for the ASTROMETRY, and used Plot|ASTROMETRY to produce the ASTROMETRY plot widget. ... First, plot the data and with Util|Ellipse and the mouse buttons interactively define an apparent ellipse to fit your data as best as you can. ... Under Util|Orbit, there is a Thiele-Innes procedure to estimate the orbital elements using your apparent ellipse and Kepler's laws! ... Back to tour page . ...

... Archives . ... The PCA and ICA is used for separating mixed components with some assumptions. ... The need of source separation methods in astronomy has led various adaptations of decomposition methods available. ... I rarely come up with a paper which gathered and summarized component separation methods applicable to astronomical data.

... TEXAS SURVEY: THE PRELIMINARY -35 and stronger than 0.25 Jy is intended to provide accurate (one arc-second rms error) positions, flux densities and structure models for each of the ~70000 sources expected to be listed. ... Average rms position accuracy for point sources is 1" in RA and 0.5" in DEC. ... 1 is the source name in IAU format. ... Thus, (+1,+1) means the second most likely lobe is 51.8" LATER in RA, and 51.8"*sec(z) HIGHER in DEC than the position listed. ...

Classroom Activity: Making a Rainbow . ... When white light from the Sun or a light bulb passes through a prism, the light splits into its component wavelengths. ... Red, blue, green colored filters - if possible, cut 1x4-inch pieces of the filters for each student . ... Many students have the misconception that filters somehow dye the light a certain color. ... Younger students can draw the rainbow and make up a mnemonic for remembering the order of the colors (such as, ROY G. BIV). ...
