We also discovered another asteroid, but today in order to challenge ourselves in our last outing with the telescope we attempted to find 2013 UW8, which moved at a measly 0.42 arc seconds minute^-1 which according to Peter's expert calculations meant that the asteroid would need 143 seconds to move just 1 arc second in the sky. ...

. This wide-angle image (spanning 320 miles [510 km]) shows different compositions in the material on MercuryтАЩs surface. The camera used three of the 11 filters available to take this image. (The wide-angle camera can image in 11 filters across the range of visible to near-infrared radiation.) This image combines data taken at 1,000 nanometers (red), 750nm (green), and 430nm (blue) to create a color image.

. NEVER look directly at the sun without a proper solar filter! . We have lots of different equipment available for use. Here you see our 6" solar filters. Our club always recommends that you use a FULL APERTURE solar filter. In the picture you will notice a TYPE 2 filter for VISUAL use and a TYPE 3 filter for PHOTOGRAPHIC use. Here is an easy way to remember which type solar filter you need for VISUAL OBSERVING: You have 2 EYES so you need a TYPE 2 filter!! .

The Sun is our nearest star and the source of energy for life on Earth. ... For centuries astronomers wondered whether they were clouds floating in the Sun's atmosphere, but we now know that they really are huge regions of magnetic field, about as intense as the field at the poles of an iron magnet. ... Such abrupt events were named solar flares , and what made them especially interesting was that occasionally, after a prominent flare, a magnetic storm would erupt on Earth. ...

Nova 1998 2 in M31 this image of the second Nova in M31 in 1998, was made from 38 exposures of 45 seconds integration time. It was made at September 21, 22h 20m UT. Telescope was a CG11 at f/6.3, no filters were used. The long list of processing steps caused the artefacts at the overexposed center of the galaxy and in many of the brighter stars. During the exposures thin clouds covered the sky but the CCD cuts through them, allowing me to obtain this result. ...
