Observers should examine the flat fields used to calibrate their data to determine whether any features in their science images are caused by these local flat-field errors. The second reference flat is a spot flat field ( header keyword CFLTFILE , cfl.fits ) which contains the vignetted shadows of the occulting spots. ...

This huge elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is the closest such galaxy to Earth, at a distance of about 12 million light-years. Observations with ESO s Very Large Telescope in Chile have discovered a new class of dark globular star clusters around this galaxy. ... Normal globulars are marked in blue and globulars showing similar properties to dwarf galaxies are in green. The dark globulars appear very similar to other globulars around this galaxy but contain much more mass. ...
