  • 236. “Stelle E Costellazioni Del Cielo”
    Progetto RaPHAEL (www.raphaelproject.com ) - Incontro nº 236 del 10/07/2005 - Colore Grigio verde 236. “Stelle e costellazioni del cielo” Una parte della natura umana è terrestre , ma un’altra parte è cosmica e stellare , volendo riscoprire la totalità della nostra vera natura è molto importante ritrovare la risonanza con le dimensioni trans-terrestri, facendo anche riemergere memorie di vite passate dove non avevamo un corpo umano e dove l’esistenza si svolgeva su altri continuum spazio-temporali. Abbiamo già visto come la Fantascienza sappia risvegliare questa risonanza (ved. incontro n° 212 ) e come ci permetta di concretizzare a livello mentale esperienze che qualcuno potrebbe aver difficoltà anche solo a concepire, adesso focalizziamo un attimo l’attenzione sull’incredibile fascino che ispirano le stelle ad ogni essere umano di animo sensibile... interiormente una parte di noi sa di originare dalle stelle ed è là che aspira a tornare! Una buona parte del nostro DNA origina da altri sistemi stellari, le leggende comparate delle varie tribù native americane raccontano che ben 12 razze galattiche hanno contribuito a creare il DNA dell’Homo sapiens. Ebbene noi suggeriamo di lasciarvi guidare dalla meditazione e dal ricordo immaginativo per recuperare i “circuiti” atemporali legati al piano cosmico , attraverso esercizi rilassati di rimpatrio energetico ed esperenziale (ed un respiro consapevole) molte esperienze possono riemergere… I nomi sotto riportati, con la posizione relativa rispetto alla costellazione di appartenenza (alfa= 1,

  • The COLOUR of CREATION Observing and Astrophotography Targets “At a Glance” Guide
    The COLOUR of CREATION observing and astrophotography targets “at a glance” guide. (Naked eye, binoculars, small and “monster” scopes) Dear fellow amateur astronomer. Please note - this is a work in progress – compiled from several sources - and undoubtedly WILL contain inaccuracies. It would therefor be HIGHLY appreciated if readers would be so kind as to forward ANY corrections and/ or additions (as the document is still obviously incomplete) to: [email protected]. The document will be updated/ revised/ expanded* on a regular basis, replacing the existing document on the ASSA Pretoria website, as well as on the website: coloursofcreation.co.za . This is by no means intended to be a complete nor an exhaustive listing, but rather an “at a glance guide” (2nd column), that will hopefully assist in choosing or eliminating certain objects in a specific constellation for further research, to determine suitability for observation or astrophotography. There is NO copy right - download at will. Warm regards. JohanM. *Edition 1: June 2016 (“Pre-Karoo Star Party version”). “To me, one of the wonders and lures of astronomy is observing a galaxy… realizing you are detecting ancient photons, emitted by billions of stars, reduced to a magnitude below naked eye detection…lying at a distance beyond comprehension...” ASSA 100.

  • CRREL Report 93-14
    CRREL REPORT 93-14 Malcolm Mellor Aviation Notes onAntarctic August1993 Abstract Antarctic aviation has been evolving for the best part of a century, with regular air operations developing over the past three or four decades. Antarctica is the last continent where aviation still depends almost entirely on expeditionary airfields and “bush flying,” but change seems imminent. This report describes the history of aviation in Antarctica, the types and characteristics of existing and proposed airfield facilities, and the characteristics of aircraft suitable for Antarctic use. It now seems possible for Antarctic aviation to become an extension of mainstream international aviation. The basic requirement is a well-distributed network of hard-surface airfields that can be used safely by conventional aircraft, together with good international collaboration. The technical capabilities al- ready exist. Cover: Douglas R4D Que Sera Sera, which made the first South Pole landing on 31 October 1956. (Smithsonian Institution photo no. 40071.)

  • Small Star Patterns for Telescopes and Binoculars Demelza Ramakers
    Asterisms Small star patterns for telescopes and binoculars Demelza Ramakers Introduction Asterisms are star patterns. The constellation Cassiopeia is probably the well-known asterism in the night sky. Cassiopeia has an obvious “W” shape. Not all asterisms are as large as Cassiopeia, there are also lots of small patterns that are only visible through binoculars ore telescopes. Unfortunately it’s pretty hard to find information about these small asterisms on the internet, so that’s why I started to make my own list. Hopefully this list is also useful to others. I used a lot of resources making this list, like the internet, the Sky & Telescope, books, several atlases and (of course) my own observations. The asterisms are ranged by constellation in alphabetical order. You will find a description of the object, the name (or names), and the positions (RA & DEC). Unfortunately I haven’t found the exact coordinates for all asterisms, but instead of that I described as good as possible where the object is located. Some asterisms are catalogued in the STAR-Catalogue, where STAR stands for Small Telescope Asterism Roster. The charts that I’ve used are all made with the program Starry Night Pro. I haven’t seen all of these asterisms by myself yet, so I can’t guarantee that the information is 100% correct. If you see incorrect information, please let me know! Making this list cost me a lot of time. That’s why it’s not allowed to take over (a part of) stuff from this list and publish it elsewhere without explicit consent.

  • Binocular Universe: Hero of Song and Story
    Binocular Universe: Hero of Song and Story July 2012 Phil Harrington ouldn’t you think, given his mythological prowess for killing the ferocious Nemean lion and multi-headed Hydra along many other acts of bravery, Wthat Hercules would have been immortalized in the sky with a more prominent set of stars than we find tonight? The sky's other superhero, Orion, certainly beams in the winter sky. But you really have to look hard to see Hercules. Above: Summer star map adapted from the author's book, Star Watch. Above: Finder chart for this month's Binocular Universe from TUBA, www.philharrington.net/tuba.htm. The easiest way to find him is to go about two-thirds of the way from the bright star Arcturus in Boötes to Vega in Lyra. You'll pass through semicircular Corona Borealis first before coming to a trapezoid of four stars known as the Keystone. Celestial artists usually portray the Keystone as part of Hercules' torso. He is often shown as kneeling, a pose that dates back to the constellation's Greek origins. Although the Greeks imagined a kneeling figure here, they didn't identify him by name. The Greek poet Aratus simply called the constellation "the Phantom whose name none can tell." The Keystone is home to this month's first target. M13, the Great Hercules Globular Cluster, resides along its western side, about a quarter of the way from Eta to Zeta Herculis. Aim there and you should see a faint blur of light centered between two faint "sentry stars" standing at attention to either side.
