We have designed the laboratory model of static Fourier spectrometer for onboard usage for spectral study of atmosphere and ionosphere. The gain of model is to simulate onboard FS which will not have any moving elements (all its optical elements will be mounted at fused quartz monolithic construction), to compare experimental results with theoretical estimations and to measure MTF of CCD array. ... This fact connected with low frequency response of CCD array due to small format of it. ...

After computing the relative shifts of the direct images, alignasn searches for corresponding grism images for each of the direct images. ... The grism association is then updated with the same relative shift measurements as determined from the direct images. ...

... The last time ever" thing is kind of an inside joke for those who have been attending for some time now. We used to do a Hidden Hollow every year and around 1995 it got to be too much work for our little club so we decided that 1995 would be "the last ever" HH. Well, the response to continue was so great we decided to "buck up" and do "one more" in 1996. Again, the response to continue overwhelmed us so we decided to do a HH every other year to give ourselves a little break. ...
