... We considered our current level of technology compared to that of an average alien civilization. Regardless of any modest value of L chosen?500 years, 5000 years, or longer?their level of technology is vastly advanced compared to ours. Thus, most science fiction gets it right by having advanced alien technology, but gets it wrong by not making them sufficiently advanced. ...

A data archive system for optical CCD data produced at Kiso Observatory and Okayama Astrophysical Observatory is discussed. This system, named MOKA, allows users to search data with some constraints, preview data, and view FITS headers. ... To overcome this, we decided to develop an archive system for the CCD data available now at the Kiso Observatory (Kiso) and the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO). ...

... As noted above, periodic signals are best analysed in the frequency domain while stochastic signals are usually more profitably analysed in the time domain. The analysis in the time domain often involves the comparison of two different signals while in the frequency domain analyses usually concern only one signal. The expectation value of the covariance function of uncorrelated signals is zero. ... In particular the ACF of a function with period P has the same value, P . ...
