... The Sun has come all of one day away from breaking its record for the longest period of inactivity for the last decade - reaching a mid-summer low and falling into yet another state of "hibernation". Yesterday, on the first day of autumn, new sunspots appeared on the surface of the Sun following an absence of almost 50 days. ... The first low lasted 51 days, from 21 July until 11 September last year. ... Now, almost a year later, it seems the Sun has hit a new low almost as "deep" as the first. ...

... GOODS unites extremely deep observations from NASA's Great Observatories, Spitzer , Hubble , and Chandra , ESA's Herschel and XMM-Newton , and from the most powerful ground-based facilities, to survey the distant universe to the faintest flux limits across the electromagnetic spectrum. ... The space-based observations are complemented by ground-based imaging and spectroscopy, including extensive commitments of ESO and NOAO observing time. ... 2010-04-10: Deep VLA 1.4 GHz data for GOODS-North . ...

The center of our Milky Way Galaxy is full of surprises. ... Stars form in gas clouds, and the motion of gas clouds tell us about the size and rotation speed of our own Milky Way Galaxy. ...

At each observatory you need to run the obs.pl program. ... Once you have logged onto the recorder PCs, you need to cd to the directory where the data is being recorded then run obs.pl. If the recorder is currently been run via cdisko or other programs which use "recorder_server", then an alias "recdir" is setup which will automatically change to the correct directory. ... vlbi . ... In such cases you need to run obs.pl on the machine where the data is being recorded - see the note below. ...
