Happily, we are teaming up with a group based in the East of England the East Anglian Amateur Radio Observatory to track their sprite.
fit into the big picture,#says Liske, who works at the European Southern Observatory, an organisation that already operates a number of telescopes in the Chilean desert.
and the Keck Observatory in Hawaii uses a similar system. The technology corrects for the blurriness caused by turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere that makes stars twinkle
Besides the E-ELT, two other observatories have recently been given the go-ahead: the Giant magellan telescope (GMT) in Las Campanas Observatory in Chile,
and the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) on Mauna kea in Hawaii. The GMT will have seven 8. 4m (27. 6ft) mirrors, arranged like flower petals.
One such device, the High accuracy radial velocity planet searcher (Harps), is mounted on a 3. 6m-(11. 8ft-)mirror telescope at La Silla, another one of ESO's observatories in the Atacama.
ONC which is the University of Victoria largest research project already operates the world most advanced cabled ocean observatories off BC coast.
Western Economic Diversification is also contributing funding to bring online a number of additional underwater observatories and high frequency coastal radars.
A citizen observatory When it comes to floods, citizens have often been thought of as mere consumers of information;
This is why Wesenseit is developing the concept of a citizen-based water observatory, where communities form part of a two-way information chain.
Overall, the citizen observatory concept will provide solid infrastructure within which SMES can create and test applications and services at low cost
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (known as the ALMA Observatory) the group conducted a full spectral survey looking for fingerprints of new interstellar molecules with sensitivity and resolution 10 times greater
The purpose of the ALMA Observatory is to search for cosmic origins through an array of 66 sensitive radio antennas from the high elevation and dry air of northern Chile s Atacama desert.
Researchers from University of Leicester and the Lund University Observatory contributed to the work. Source:
and the large telescopes of the W. M. Keck Observatory researchers found an excess of oxygenâ##a chemical signature that indicates that the debris had once been part of a bigger body originally composed of 26 percent water by mass.
Additional observations were obtained with both of the 10m telescopes of the W. M. Keck Observatory on the summit of Mauna kea Hawaii.
Follow-up observations were done with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and ground-based optical telescopes including the Keck 10-meter telescope in Hawaii. wenty years ago we couldn't have done thisstrader says. e didn't have Hubble or Chandra.
This is one of those projects where you bring together the full force of NASA's great observatories plus ground-based resources. ource:
American Community Survey data, crunched by City Observatory, reveals that the number of college-educated young adults (ages 25 to 34) living within three miles of city centers has risen 37 percent since the millennium.
About an hour later the Spectroscopic Planet Observatory for Recognition of Interaction of Atmosphere (SPRINT-A) separated from the launch rocket.

If you can grow large particles they will disappear very quickly says Nienke van der Marel of Leiden Observatory in The netherlands.
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the M9. 4-class event at a wavelength of 131 Angstroms
such as those obtained by LIGO, the Laser interferometry Gravitational-wave Observatory, a Caltech-and-MIT-led project searching for signs of gravitational waves,
The correction, called the Sunspot Number Version 2. 0 was led by Frédéric Clette, Director of the World Data centre (WDC) SILSO, Ed Cliver of the National Solar Observatory and Leif Svalgaard
including the VIST and the VST at Chile Paranal Observatory, Nasa GALEX, WISE and a European space agency Herschel telescope.
Professor Mark Bailey, director of Armagh Observatory in Northern ireland, called the Perseids the'best and most reliable meteor shower of the year'.

Public observatories Although most astronomical observatories are reserved for professional research, some have museums or outreach programs that host astronomy nights for the public.
In Los angeles, Griffith Observatory is dedicated solely to public education. Even though a telescope is needed not to view a meteor shower
your local observatory might have people on hand to tell you more about skywatching. You may even get a chance to look at other celestial objects through a telescope.
Check with local observatories for details. Online If bad weather threatens to spoil your view of the Perseids,

Finally, in March of this year, NASA and colleagues at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) uncovered evidence of a massive ancient ocean that once covered almost half of Mars northern hemisphere.
It akin to the difference between looking at the stars with a standard telescope versus an observatory-quality refractor telescope, according to Yale chair of neurology, Dr. David Hafler, who worked with Montgomery to bring Cytof to Yale. t allows

The W. M. Keck Observatories and Gemini Observatory on Mauna kea in Hawaii were used to measure the distance to the cluster at 8. 5 billion light-years.
The installation of the Institute's newest generation of River and Estuary Observatory Network (REON II) sensor arrays signifies the passing of the baton from the science lab to the river as they run ahead complementing government capacity to invest in wiring the river for cleaner water.
