Hello group. Are the bright streaks in C3 2006/02/01 19:42 debris? There are several toward the bottom and one small one above the occular. Thanks, Steve...
Hi Steve, Yes -- debris off the spacecraft. These seem to show up once a month or so -- sometimes quite severe. --Rob ... From: sohohunter@yahoogroups.com...
... Probably quite close, and no. Reason being that the debris in question is from the spacecraft itself, so the relative velocities are very small. --Rob...
Steve, As Rob said, the particles are tiny things, with a very low velocity wrt SOHO. SOHO is, of course, at greater risk from larger particles, but we've done...
Hi All, An interesting lull in Kreutz activity in early February. In the last seven years, there has never been a time when there wasn't at least one Kreutz...
Hello all, Further to Rob's comment, last year (2005) was the first year in which we have not seen a significant increase in the number of comets discovered....
Looks like the Gods have internet access also...LOL Steve ... [mailto:sohohunter@yahoogroups.com]On ... which ... discoveries. ... increasing ... ones?...
Hi Steve, Thanks for confirming on the reports page. I'm actually surprised this comet hasn't increased much in brightness in 4 hours. --Rob ... From:...
I notice in the year 1987-1989, SMM had got ten Kreutz which were brighter than 1 mag, some of those even reach -4 mag. But it seems there're no more than ten...
I had checked swan images from 0216-0303 last night. And find out E2 fait in Swan images. 0219 570 275 0221 567 273 0226 561 273 0228 599 273 0303 555 272 This...
Hi Jin, E2 (McNaught) has actually been visible in SWAN since 1/29. I e-mailed Rob McNaught back on Feb. 6th that at first I thought I had found a new SWAN...
Hello list members, My name is Kevin Forbes, this is my first post to the list. I have been a list member of the meteorite list for some time. May I draw your...
Hello SOHO list, there appears to be a Kracht-group object visible in the most recent mpeg LASCO C3 download from ESA. 16-03-2005. The object first appears...
... recent mpeg ... top, it ... the image ... appears ... Hello Kevin, I have checked it with GUIDE 8, and there is the planet Mercury! (I have mistaken it as...
Hello Rainer Thank you for the information, I am new to the list, and will no doubt have a rapid learning curve with help from list members. What is the GUIDE...
Rob, I haven't checked it out yet, but I'm sure it's real. Congrats! Like I say, I haven't looked at it, so I don't know it's path/motion/brightness or...
Hi Karl and Rob, ... Would be nice ;) But I fear we are a bit early in the year for it. Cheers, Sebastian -- ... Sebastian F. Hoenig Max-Planck-Institut fuer...
Hi Karl, ... Thanks! It popped right out at me and I wasn't even looking for it. ... I'm pretty sure it's a Marsden based on the path and velocity (it has a...
... Yes, the Marsden-group is definitely getting complicated now... The problem is the uncertainty in the astromtery measurement, especially for C3. If this...
Hello list, I was wondering, would it be advantageous to all if there was software that loaded a jpeg image and ID'd its size, and then allowed you to move...
Kevin, Most photo and image editing programs (e.g. PhotoShop, PaintShop Pro, Gimp, etc) do this already. They display the pixel coordinates (usually) in the...
