The possibilities have captured the finest minds in and outside of astronomy, good- natured atheists as well as devout Christians. The current conservatism around S.E.T.I. had no place in earlier thinking in times of spectacular scientific advance.” In this talk, Gary Ross and Clayton V. Carey will dive into the speculations and scientific efforts Above: Gary M Ross with Raymond B Larson of earlier generations regarding life on other worlds. Photo credit: James Steele Foerch Gary Ross is a past president of the Warren Astronomical Society and an active member of both W.A.S. and the Grand Rapids Amateur Astronomical Association. He has observed the skies with everything from a 50mm refractor to a 28 inch reflector, from the light pollution of Royal Oak to the darkest skies northern Ontario has to offer. His presentations to the W.A.S. often center around the moral superiority of the analog unit (the human brain) to the computers and iThings and contraptions many of us rely on. He also specializes in the history of professional and amateur astronomy, and humankind’s relationship with the cosmos generally.

A century ago, S&T ILLUSTRATION BY CASEY REED giants of early astrophysics worked intensely on the prob- lem of eclipsing-binary analysis. Henry Norris Russell’s paper “On the Determination of the Orbital Elements of Eclipsing Variable Stars,” published in 1912, set the stage for what followed. BIG WHITE STAR, BIGGER BLACK PARTNER Epsilon Aurigae, hotter than the Sun and larger than Earth’s entire orbit, pours forth some 130,000 times the Sun’s light — which is why it shines as brightly as 3rd magnitude even from 2,000 light-years away. According to the currently favored model, a long, dark object will start sliding across its middle this summer. The object seems to be an opaque warped disk 10 a.u. wide and appearing roughly 1 a.u. tall. Whatever lies at its center seems to be hidden — though there’s also evidence that we see right through the center.

    Chapter 16 the Sun and Stars

    Chapter 16 The Sun and Stars Stargazing is an awe-inspiring way to enjoy the night sky, but humans can learn only so much about stars from our position on Earth. The Hubble Space Telescope is a school-bus-size telescope that orbits Earth every 97 minutes at an altitude of 353 miles and a speed of about 17,500 miles per hour. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) transmits images and data from space to computers on Earth. In fact, HST sends enough data back to Earth each week to fill 3,600 feet of books on a shelf. Scientists store the data on special disks. In January 2006, HST captured images of the Orion Nebula, a huge area where stars are being formed. HST’s detailed images revealed over 3,000 stars that were never seen before. Information from the Hubble will help scientists understand more about how stars form. In this chapter, you will learn all about the star of our solar system, the sun, and about the characteristics of other stars. 1. Why do stars shine? 2. What kinds of stars are there? 3. How are stars formed, and do any other stars have planets? 16.1 The Sun and the Stars What are stars? Where did they come from? How long do they last? During most of the star - an enormous hot ball of gas day, we see only one star, the sun, which is 150 million kilometers away. On a clear held together by gravity which night, about 6,000 stars can be seen without a telescope.

  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In

    A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In

    Abasic requirement for studying the heavens is determining where in the sky things are. To specify sky positions, astronomers have developed several coordinate systems. Each uses a coordinate grid projected on to the celestial sphere, in analogy to the geographic coordinate system used on the surface of the Earth. The coordinate systems differ only in their choice of the fundamental plane, which divides the sky into two equal hemispheres along a great circle (the fundamental plane of the geographic system is the Earth's equator) . Each coordinate system is named for its choice of fundamental plane. The equatorial coordinate system is probably the most widely used celestial coordinate system. It is also the one most closely related to the geographic coordinate system, because they use the same fun­ damental plane and the same poles. The projection of the Earth's equator onto the celestial sphere is called the celestial equator. Similarly, projecting the geographic poles on to the celest ial sphere defines the north and south celestial poles. However, there is an important difference between the equatorial and geographic coordinate systems: the geographic system is fixed to the Earth; it rotates as the Earth does . The equatorial system is fixed to the stars, so it appears to rotate across the sky with the stars, but of course it's really the Earth rotating under the fixed sky. The latitudinal (latitude-like) angle of the equatorial system is called declination (Dec for short) . It measures the angle of an object above or below the celestial equator. The longitud inal angle is called the right ascension (RA for short).

Review process Proposal Selection Members of the international astronomical community review Hubble propos- als. Grouped in panels organized by science category, each panel has one or more “mirror” panels to enable transfer of proposals in order to avoid conflicts. In Cycle 19, the panels were divided into the categories of Planets, Stars, Stellar Rachel Somerville, [email protected], Claus Leitherer, [email protected], & Brett Populations and Interstellar Medium (ISM), Galaxies, Active Galactic Nuclei and Blacker, [email protected] the Inter-Galactic Medium (AGN/IGM), and Cosmology, for a total of 14 panels. One of these panels reviewed Regular Guest Observer, Archival, Theory, and Chronology SNAP proposals. The panel chairs also serve as members of the Time Allocation Committee hen the Cycle 19 Call for Proposals was released in December 2010, (TAC), which reviews Large and Archival Legacy proposals. In addition, there Hubble had already seen a full cycle of operation with the newly are three at-large TAC members, whose broad expertise allows them to review installed and repaired instruments calibrated and characterized. W proposals as needed, and to advise panels if the panelists feel they do not have The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS), the expertise to review a certain proposal. Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS), Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS), and The process of selecting the panelists begins with the selection of the TAC Chair, Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) were all close to nominal operation and were avail- about six months prior to the proposal deadline.
