We use high-performance parallel computers for analysis of data from many different observatories, e.g. Palomar, Arecibo, Parkes, the Infrared Astronomy Satellite, and the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Caltech Computational Astronomy Projects Modern astronomical telescopes are using increasingly sophisticated instrument technology, and produce larger and more complex datasets which often require large amounts of computation to extract the maximum signal-to-noise ratio from an observation. Thus high-performance computers must be viewed as essential components of these new instruments. The following are some of our current projects in computational astronomy.

Click here for the Meeting agenda Astronomy projects in the AMPATH service area: GEMINI: The Gemini Project has just connected its two telescopes in Mauna Kea (Hawaii) and Cerro Pachon (Chile) via Internet2. The Gemini Project is an international partnership with two 8.1-meter telescopes (each telescope has a main mirror over 26 feet across.) One telescope is located on Hawaii's Mauna Kea, and the other on Chile's Cerro Pachón. The name Gemini comes from the mythological twins, whose stars will be visible to both telescopes. See http://www.gemini.edu for more information. ESO: Other important optical telescopes facilities are Cerro Tololo (Interamerican Observatory) and Las Campanas. Also the two ESO (European Southern Observatory) facilites La Silla and Paranal. These are all candidates for future high-speed network access. The European Southern Observatory is an intergovernmental, European organization for astronomical research. It has ten member countries. ESO operates astronomical observatories in Chile and has its headquarters in Garching, near Munich, Germany. See

69. NASA/MSU-Bozeman CERES Project Educational Activities These collaborative group projects require 4 to 10 class hours and integrate themes unifying concepts in science with astronomy objectives from the NRC http://btc.montana.edu/ceres/html/EdActivities.html

A team of master teachers, university faculty, and NASA researchers have created a series of web-based astronomy and astrobiology lessons for the CERES Project. These classroom-ready activities for K-12 students represent a robust combination of contemporary teaching/learning strategies from the National Science Education Standards (NRC, 1996), exciting and current NASA science data, and Internet pointers to an endless supply of accurate and timely resources. Three Types of Classroom-Ready Lessons are Available On-line: STUDENT INQUIRIES / EXTENSION LESSONS Students explore NASA data to construct first-hand knowledge about the astronomical universe. These internet-based lessons require 1 to 4 class hours and are tied explicitly to the NRC National Science Education Standards astronomy objectives. They can be used as an introduction to astronomy topics, as an intermediate activity, or as an extension activity that requires active participation by students. SPACEQUESTS QuestForm Template APPLICATIONS IN ASTROBIOLOGY Students explore interdisciplinary science topics within the context of astrobiology to construct first-hand knowledge about the origin, distribution, and future of life on Earth and beyond. These internet-based lessons require 1 to 4 class hours and are closely tied to the NRC National Science Education Standards and the Principles and Standards for Mathematics. These lessons can be used as stand alone activities or as supplemental materials for standard math and science courses. Many of these activities are suitable for both middle and high school students, even though they may be cited as being appropriate for one group or another.

Science Fair Projects and Suggestions One of the most common questions asked at the POETRY site is to provide suggestions for Science Fair topics that students can attempt. Here are some on-going projects and a list of suggestions. Follow the links to pages where students have recorded their successes and where we report our progress in getting students to use these ideas! You can also skip to the section where we answer some common questions about finding a topic. Search for Infrared Cosmic Radiation Using real data from the NASA COBE satellite to search for and identify infrared sources in the sky. You will also use this data to search for traces of the infrared light left over from the Big Bang. This project has been selected by 12 students so beginning with the 1996-1997 school year. Student Progress Reports and newsletters. Modeling the Infrared Sky Using real data from the NASA COBE satellite, students will construct several mathematical models of the minimum sky intensity in specific patches of the sky. They will examine these models to find the ones that give the best predictions for the actual sky brightness based on extrapolations from low- latitude sky data. They will then compare their predictions against the actual sky brightness near the north and south poles of the Milky Way, and estimate the level of the cosmic infrared sky background left over from the Big Bang.
