Hi Ralph; Very cool paper and great to see Mac Software (Kudos to Darryl Robertson too) being used for actual Astro science rather than just pretty pictures...
Besides Alan and Craig, both of whom are speaking. Me? I'll be listening intently. Acting purely on a whim, I decided last night that I would attend. I...
Hey Folks, Anyone else going to the WWDC this year? If I am not the only one let us have beer together! cheers Georg Tuparev Tuparev Technologies Klipper 13 ...
I'll be at MWAIC... kinda have to be there since I'm organizing it. That also means I can answer a few of the questions authoratively. Expecting lower...
The June 2009 issue of AstroPhoto Insight Magazine (Volume 5, Issue 3) is now available. In this issue you'll find: * The Five S's Part 4a: Select Warren...
David, I'll be there as well. The auditorium is about the same size as the one at NEAIC but I heard a rumor that they will be using the class rooms instead....
Milton, The objective of the "proof of concept" project was to demonstrate we could replicate the color curve work of Bus & Binzel at Kitt Peak (SMASS). Those...
Hi Ralph; ... Interesting. Would 20 Ang/Pix be enough to pick up discrete absorption spikes due to minerals or would they be to diluted to recognize? It's been...
Hi David, I'm looking forward to seeing you and other friends that I missed at NEAF. Will be focusing my talk on recording the drama at the edge of the sun. ...
Sheesh! I knew you were the organizer, but still, it didn't register in my pointy little head. Thanks very much for the info. The facility sounds great to me. ...
Hello, Alan, I'm looking forward to it. I was telling a friend about you the other day, and I showed him "Kleine Ina Nachtmusik." He was stunned. So I got to...
When and where is it? Terry - W6LMJ Terrence R. Redding, Ph.D. RTN http://olt.net/learningstyle/Site_2/Learning_Style_Research.html How do amateur astronomers...
... Terry, MWAIC 2009 takes place on June 26-27 in Hoffman Estates, IL (about 20 minutes from O'Hare Airport). More info: http://www.mwaic.com Al Degutis...
Thanks. I am suppose to be in Missouri on the 22nd and 23rd. Maybe I can find a way to stay out West another few days. Terry - W6LMJ Terrence R. Redding,...
I have been looking for an inexpensive color CCD such as the Orion StarShoot that will work with Mac 10.5 and Equinox 6 or any astronomy software package. The...
Of course Astro IIDC will work only with the Firewire versions of The Imaging Source Cameras (the ones with an "F" in the serial number) & not the USB ones...
I went and did some reading. I am fine with Firewire, especially 800. Use of a standard interface is always a benefit as opposed to proprietary protocols. I...
Jeff, I downloaded Nebulosity, but ran into the lack of cameras that I thought would run on it, that I could afford. I looked at Meade, and need to compare it...
For those concerned about disappearance of Firewire from the unibody aluminum MacBook when it was introduced last fall... Well, it's back! At its product...
... Milton, Its doubtful that 20 angstroms/pixel would be enough resolution to "see" individual minerals - most element lines are just a few angstroms across,...
That is nice news on firewire and it does appear that the matte screen is history. Seems the matte screen 30" Cinema is the only one left on the Apple website...
I probably would have never tried another DSI, but Woodland Hills Telescopes had the Pro III on sale at RTMC for about $540, and I'd already discovered that...
