... It was with this spirit that Norman Oberle suggested that area amateurs should have the benefit of a large aperture (25 inches or larger) telescope with sufficient focal length for excellent visual work. ... Norm Oberle and Jim Thomas spent 2,000 hours grinding and polishing to work the mirror into an oblate spheroid. ... Norm worked with Jim Thomas in a basement workshop. ...

... Satellite data ] . SMIS ] . The program calculates the satellite orbit using ephemeris data in either predict-telegrams (APT predict, TBUS data) or 2-line NORAD format (TLE data). It determines the start and finish times of acquisition session and stores the data for antenna control during the receipt onto the hard disk. The program creates session schedules, supports selection of specific regions for observation and automatic filtration of satellite passes over the selected regions. ...

Isaak Newton (1642 - 1727). ... During 1665 - 1667 Newton made his three main discoveries: the method of fluxings and quadratures (differential and integral calculus, explanation of the light nature and the law of gravitation). ... In 1668 Newton built the first reflecting telescope. The big lens telescope gave indistinct image with painted edges. ... The scientist considered this problem indisolved and suggested a mean against chromatic aberration: a mirror must be used instead of objective lens. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the circular polarization of maser radiation from a turbulent, Keplerian disk that is intended to represent the sub-parsec disk at the nucleus of the galaxy NGC4258. ... This turbulence, along with the Keplerian velocity gradients and the blending of the three hyperfine components to form the 6 16 --5 32 masing transition of water, are key ingredients in determining the appearance of the polarized spectra that are calculated. ...
