Test drive a 20" RCOS Ritchey-Chretien at Kitt Peak (NOAO) National Observatory! Collimating with the Takahashi Collimation Scope. Previously Owned Equipment RC Optical Systems designs and produces quality Ritchey-Chretien telescopes for the professional and amateur astronomer. Our innovative design incorporates state-of-the-art materials to assure a product with the utmost performance and quality. Our telescopes are the lightest and most thermally stable in their class, bar none! Correct composite construction allows for "focus and forget" utilization. RCOS Ritchey-Chretiens maintain precise focus all night, every night. These are just a few reasons why we continue to be the World's #1 manufacturer of Ritchey-Chretien Telescopes. RC Optical Systems selected the Ritchey-Chretien design for its wide coma free field of view. Designed principally as a photographic instrument by American George Ritchey and Frenchman Henri Chretien, the Ritchey-Chretien design is coma free. Coma is an aberration common in all reflecting telescope systems. The Ritchey-Chretien design utilizes a hyperbolic primary and secondary mirror, which correct for coma.

106. Transitsearch.org The purpose of transitsearch.org is to coordinate and direct a cooperative observational effort which will allow experienced amateur astronomers and small college observatories to discover transiting extrasolar planets. http://www.transitsearch.org/index.htm

The discover y since 1995 of more than a hundred planets orbiting nearby solar-like stars and the discovery of a transiting planet orbiting the star HD209458 has heralded a new era in astronomy. Furthermore, the past several years have seen the introduction of highly affordable small telescopes equipped with sensitive and stable CCD (charge coupled device) detectors, and controlled by laptop computers. A large number of amateur astronomers and small colleges own observatories which, when properly configured, are capable of reliably detecting the periodic dimming which occurs when a close-in giant planet passes in front of the parent star as seen from Earth. Click here to see how this technique was used to detect the transit of HD209458b Our goal is to coordinate and direct a cooperative observational effort which will allow experienced amateur astronomers and small college observatories to discover transiting extrasolar planets. In order to utilize the advantages of a network of small telescopes most effectively, we are adopting the strategy of observing known planet-bearing stars at the dates and times when transits are expected to occur. At present, all but one of the confirmed extrasolar planets orbiting sun-like stars in the galactic neighborhood have been discovered using the Doppler radial velocity technique (see www.exoplanets.org

Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers Quick Search: Advanced Search The Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers (SARA) is an international society of dedicated enthusiasts who teach, learn, trade technical information, and do their own observations of the radio sky. This organization is a scientific, non-profit group founded for the sole purpose of supporting amateur radio astronomy. SARA was organized in 1981, and today has hundreds of members worldwide. The group consists of optical astronomers, ham radio operators, engineers, teachers and non-technical persons. Many of our members are new to the field, and membership is extended to all who have an interest in radio astronomy.

109. IfA -- Comet Hale-Bopp Includes news and images obtained by University of Hawaii astronomers. http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/images/hale-bopp/hale-bopp.html

Comet Hale-Bopp at the UH Institute for Astronomy C omet Hale-Bopp is now moving away from the inner Solar System. As it receives less energy from the Sun, the cometary activity is slowing down, the tail is disappearing and the comet will rapidly become too faint to be observed with small telescope. While this marks the end of Hale-Bopp's public performance, it is not the end of the story: we plan to continue observing it as long as possible. The decrease and cessation of a comet's activity give very interesting information on its composition and history, so we are trying to observe comets as far as possible from the Sun. A typical comet nucleus has a diameter of 1 to 10 km, and is extremely dark, so that task is far from easy and requires big telescopes and very long exposures; in the case of Comet Hale-Bopp, we hope a to have an easier task, as we know that the nucleus is very bright. For more information, check out Karen Meech's Distant Comet Reseach page , and for an example of tricky observation, have a look at the faintest Solar System object ever observed: Comet Halley at the distance of Uranus , which is also the last image of that comet.
