The term "astronaut" derives from the Greek words meaning "space sailor," and refers to all who have been launched as crew members aboard NASA spacecraft bound for orbit and beyond. Since the inception of NASA's human space flight program, we have also maintained the term "astronaut" as the title for those selected to join the NASA corps of astronauts who make "space sailing" their career profession. ...

... We describe the construction of convolution kernels that allow one to generate (multiwavelength) images with a common PSF, thus preserving the colors of the astronomical sources. We generate convolution kernels for the cameras of Spitzer, Herschel Space Observatory, Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), ground-based optical telescopes (Moffat functions and sum of Gaussians), and Gaussian PSFs. ...

... The extended project as the existing one aims to investigate, control and exploit the properties of interfaces between isostructural functional oxides for the realization of new nanosized electronic and optoelectronic devices. New participants will contribute to the characterization and understanding of physical properties of interfaces made of perovskite materials. In particular high frequency dynamical properties, fluctuation phenomena and dielectric spectrum will be carefully studied. ...

... Based on the measurements of the Stokes parameters in the continuum and in the broad 0.6563 nm hydrogen emission line obtained with the 6-m telescope for the Seyfert galaxy Mkn 6, secular variability of the hydrogen line profile polarization was discovered; a time lag of less than 2 days between the continuum flux and the polarized continuum emission was determined which corresponds to the size of the region where the polarization of the continuum occurs, less than 0.001 pc. ...

... Up: Science Software Applications . ... It has extensions for creating GUI (Tk) and object-oriented ([incr tcl]) applications. Several Tcl-based tools that may be used for astronomical and other scientific applications have been created and are discussed. One example is ptcl , which registers PGPLOT functions as Tcl commands, creating a powerful interactive plotting package. ... Both programs use the same C code, Tcl commands, and [incr tcl] classes; only the GUIs are different. ...
