STARTEST IMAGES GALLERY . Type: Maksutov Cassegrain . ... Inside Focus . ... Outside Focus . ... These is are the startest images of two alike 6"F/10 Maksutov Cassegrain’s. The central obstruction on these images is slightly larger than in the reality. ... Another rather easy done simulation for the second image from the left in the second table with images. ... Also the middle-ring is brighter in the simulation according to the PSF’s , this is however not so clear when you look at the images. ...

... Moon Phase below . ... ARTICLE: Why the moon always shows us the same face . ... Before you continue reading, you should know that this was not always the case, i.e. the Moon once was rotating with respect to the Earth, so that on every night a terrestrial observer (if there was one, because this was long, long before mankind appeared on our planet, and even before any major animals had appeared) saw another face of the Moon. ... Figure 1 (not to scale) shows how we can imagine the system Earth-Moon...

... The metallicity distribution of disk F stars in different age ranges: the left column for the sample of stars within 80 pc around the Sun; the right column for the restored complete sample at the solar galactocentric distance with allowance made for the radial metallicity gradient. The numbers indicate the age ranges expressed in billions of years. ... next figure . ...
