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. ...

The recent telemetry data confirmed that the complex remains pressurised, the thermal mode is normal, the onboard systems perform norminal. Enough electricity is generated to maintain the onboard systems operation and measure orbit parameters. The OC "Mir" onboard systems were checked out, orbit radio monitoring performed. Currently, the OC "Mir" is in free drift. ...
