ATMoB "Open Cluster Observing Award " Guidelines Purpose: To promote observing among the membership of the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston through participation in the Open Clusters Observing Awards program. Introduction: This awards program is oriented towards visually observing open clusters above magnitude 9.9. ... It turns out that a very unprejudiced and convenient method to dermine the limiting magnitude is to count the number of visible stars in certain areas on the sky. ...

Tired light models invoke a gradual energy loss by photons as they travel through the cosmos to produce the redshift-distance law. ... The tired light model can not produce a blackbody spectrum for the Cosmic Microwave Background without some incredible coincidences. ... So the CMB must have come from a far away part of the Universe, and its photons will thus lose energy by the tired light effect. ... Assume that the CMB starts out as a T = (1+z)*T_o = 2.998 K blackbody, which is the blue curve. ...

Halo around the Moon. Halo arises when the light beams refracted on the high clouds icy chips ina form of a six side prism. As a result we see a small halo circle with a 22°-radius. The big circle is formed by the beams paased through the side edge and the base of prismochips. Its radius is equal to 46° (nearly). The big circle is observed rarely and is shining weaker but it is easier to observe it near the Sun, if comparing with the small halo invisible in the bright Sun light. ...
