... This is actually pretty easy to do. All I need is a chart of the NGC galaxies with a Z. I think that I can get that from NED. ... I have tabulated...
So, what file naming schemes have you found useful?? I'm trying to find something that works well for me and the software (MaximDL, AstroImageJ) that we use....
Patrick, Like Dave, I keep all my images, but further to that all of my good images end up getting co-added to the master for that galaxy. So even a negative...
Firstly to Dave Bishop - we have a term in Austrlia for someone who does something of incredible importance that benefits many in our country - "a national...
2011/12/17 2011iy in NGC 4984 is a Type Ia found after max (wasPSN J13085839-1531041) and is currently Mag 12.2. 2011iv in NGC 1404 is also a Type Ia at Mag...
Supernova activity report 2011/12/26 2011ja is a Type IIP in the edge on NGC 4945. This object is Mag 12.1 and still rising. 2011iv in NGC 1404 has started to...
Supernova activity report 2012/01/01 2011ja appears to be maxing out at Mag 12.1, making it the second brightest supernova of the year. 2011iv, 2011iy and...
Hi David, ... Would be helpful to me would be a similar page sorted by the date a given object's record was changed (most recent at top). I'm mainly looking...
2011ja is still amazingly bright at Mag 11.8. If anybody has any images of NGC 4945 taken in around the discovery date (2011/12/18) I would be interested in...
I just loaded nearly 50 images sent to me. A good morning's work! http://www.RochesterAstronomy.org/snimages/ 2011ja appears to be maxing out at Mag 11.7,...
2011ja is still our brightest object at mag 11.7, though my last observation of this supernova in Centaurus is nearly 15 days old. 2011iv at Mag 13.7 (also a...
Hello, there. I have a bright suspect (~12.85 IR) at RA = 12 01 52.04, Dec = -18 53 53.9, J2000.0, on a 120 second image taken 2012-02-11.163 UT, which is...
Hi, there. The bright suspect in NGC4039, was a moving object. The only known minor planet in the vicinity at the time is quite dim and well observed, and...
Bonjour, Sorry but the weather is bad here in northern France. If you have several pictures of these objets at different (and accurate) times, the best you...
Hi, there. Does anyone have time to re-image a suspect for me tonight? I've been waiting three days, for an new image, but keep getting bumped off the queue at...
I have not sent out one of these is about a month, basically because there has been little to report. 2011ja (Type IIP in NGC 4945) maxed out at Mag 11.7 on...
15480 Empire Rd. Benson, AZ 85602 hm ph: 520-586-2244 I cannot believe Weidong Li died, David. What happened? I knew him quite well when I lived in California...
... I knew him too, and it was a shock to me. From people I have talked to (some of his students and coworkers) he killed himself. Leaving his daughter and...
I'm quite shocked at this news. Weidong was extremely helpful to me when sn2010ik was discovered. He kindly reviewed my data and offered his expert opinion....
15480 Empire Rd. Benson, AZ 85602 hm ph: 520-586-2244 Thanks, Dave. What a shame, Weidong had so much more to live for, but you can never read what's happening...
I finally had another image of the UGC1626 field last night from the Rigel and the suspect is gone. Thanks to everyone for the help. All the very best, Ella S....
Just discovered and confirmed (a few hours ago) is PSN J10435372+1140177 in M95, rapidly rising at Mag 13.0. Note that Mars is about 1/2 degree away. 2011au,...
Hi all, JD Armstrong on Maui used the Faulkes Telescope North to get images of 3198 and found nothing out of the ordinary. Looks like my suspect was a hot...
Bonsoir, Pluie et grêle sur l'Ile de France... Pas observé depuis longtemps. On en profite pour traiter de vieilles images et préparer les observations ...
