... Up: Future Instruments and Telescopes, Tools . ... New Generation Astronomical Telescopes (NGAT), a class of telescopes designed to be operated remotely and robotically, require efficient methods for communicating images over heterogeneous and low-bandwidth data networks such as the Internet. ... Methods researched thus far involve the classification of astronomical images based on object parameterisation, progressive image transmission, and evaluation of existing image compression schemes. ...

Architect's Drawing: ARC 3.5-mTelescope This year we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Astrophysical Research Consortium's (ARC) 3.5-m Telescope (1994 - 2014) dedication. ...

Four telescopes are currently operated: The Sloan Foundation 2.5-m Telescope, the ARC Small Aperture 0.5-m Telescope, the New Mexico State University 1.0-m Telescope, and the ARC 3.5-m Telescope. ...

An image of the grand design of spiral galaxy M100 obtained with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope resolves individual stars within the majestic spiral arms. ... Hubble has the ability to resolve individual stars in other galaxies and measure accurately the light from very faint stars. This makes space telescope invaluable for identifying a rare class of pulsating stars, called Cepheid Variable stars embedded within M100's spiral arms. ... 617) 495-7062 . Fax: (617) 495-7356 . ...

Polar Alignment Using The Star Drift Method . Articles | ... This method with, a little practice, can give you reasonable polar alignment within one half hour. ... If the star drifts northward, your scope is west of the pole. ... Remember that as your adjustments get you closer to the pole, the star will drift slower and you must wait longer to detect a north-south drift. If the star drifts south, you are east of the pole and you must turn the mount towards the west. ... www.astronomy.net . ...

... STScI-PRC99-19 HUBBLE FINDS VARIABLE STARS IN DISTANT SPIRAL GALAXY A NASA Hubble Space Telescope (HST) view of the magnificent spiral galaxy NGC 4603, the most distant galaxy in which a special class of pulsating stars called Cepheid variables have been found. It is associated with the Centaurus cluster, one of the most massive assemblages of galaxies in the nearby universe. ... Researchers found 36-50 Cepheids and used their observed properties to securely determine the distance to NGC 4603. ...

Galaxies are diffuse objects which are imaged against a background of finite brightness and noise. Galaxies which have the maximum contrast with respect to this background are the ones that are first discovered. ... These galaxies have been missed to date but active surveys for them are underway. ... In this page we present several examples of these newly discovered Low Surface Brightness galaxies as well as examples of high surface brightness galaxies. ...
