  • The Quest for the Gegenschein Erwin Matys, Karoline Mrazek
    The Quest for the Gegenschein Erwin Matys, Karoline Mrazek The sun’s counterglow — or gegenschein — is kind of a stargazers’ legend. Every amateur astronomer has heard about it, only a few of them have actually seen it, and even fewer were lucky enough to capture an image of this dim and ghostlike apparition. As a fellow observer put it: “The gegenschein is certainly not a GOTO-object.” Matter of fact, it isn’t an object at all. But let’s start from the beginning. What exactly is the gegenschein? It is widely known that the space between the planets isn’t empty. The plane of the solar system is filled with an enormous disk of small dust particles with sizes ranging from less than 1/1000 mm up to 1 mm. It is less commonly known that this interplanetary dust cloud is a highly dynamic structure. In contrast to conventional wisdom, it is not an aeon-old leftover from the solar system’s formation. This primordial dust is long gone. Today’s interplanetary dust is — in an astronomical sense of speaking — very young, only millions of years old. Most of the particles originate from quite recent incidents, like asteroid collisions. This is not the gegenschein. The picture shows the zodiacal light, which is closely related to the gegenschein. Here imaged from a rural site, the zodiacal light is a cone of light extending from the sun along the ecliptic, visible after dusk and before dawn. The gegenschein stems from the same dust cloud, but is much harder to detect or photograph.

  • Astronomy Instructions
    This week we are going to explore some of the wonders of the universe with this Stargazing and Astronomy kit. Included are some stargazing tips and a star map, instructions for a DIY Sundial, and materials to make some astronomy inspired origami! Get out and stargaze! Wyoming is an ideal stargazing location and summer is the perfect time to get out! Stargazing tips: ● Timing: Wait until it gets totally dark, at least an hour after sunset. Make sure there are not too many clouds blocking the view ● Light Pollution: We are lucky in Wyoming to not have much light pollution. However, if you get further away from town you will be able to see more stars. You should still be able to see quite a few from your yard or house though! ● Star Maps: Using a star map or some other guide to stargaze will let you know what exactly you are looking at and teach you about new stars, planets, and constellations. Use the star map in this guide or download a free stargazing app. We recommend SkyView Free, Sky Map, or Star Walk 2. Objects to look for in the sky: ❏ The North Star (Polaris): Look due north and find ursa major and ursa minor (big dipper and little dipper). The north star is the last star at the end of the little dipper’s handle. You can also find it by drawing a line straight up from the big dipper’s “spout” ❏Jupiter: Just after sunset, just around dusk look for Jupiter in the southeast. It will be one of the brightest objects in the sky ❏Draco (the dragon): near the little dipper (see star map) ❏Milky Way: the bright “river” of light that runs through the sky.
