FRIPON - Accueil

http://www.imcce.fr/fripon/ Un réseau de cent caméras en France ! FRIPON sera constitué de cent caméras "fish eye" (fig 3) permettant de calculer des trajectoires suffisament précises pour la recherche sur le terrain des météorites associées. Nous utiliserons également le radar militaire GRAVES pour obtenir des orbitesprécises pour l'étude de la dynamique de ces objets avant leur chute.

Finding Bubbles in the Milky Way

A huge team of volunteers from the general public has poured over observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and discovered more than 5,000 "bubbles" in the disk of our Milky Way galaxy. http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/images/4938-sig12-002-Finding-Bubbles-in-the-Milky-Way
Over two decades in orbit, the Hubble Space Telescope has made a huge number of observations. http://www.spacetelescope.org/announcements/ann1203/

A galaxy is a collection of stars – typically 200 billion for a large galaxy. When we look out into the universe we see that these galaxies come in two basic types – “spiral galaxies” (like our home, the Milky Way) and “elliptical galaxies”.

We submitted the first Milky Way Project paper to the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society ( MNRAS ) in December and the referee has been very kind to us so far. We have our fingers crossed for acceptance soon.

BOINC is a program that lets you donate your idle computer time to science projects like SETI@home, Climateprediction.net, Rosetta@home, World Community Grid, and many others. After installing BOINC on your computer, you can connect it to as many of these projects as you like. You may run this software on a computer only if you own the computer or have the permission of its owner. Tested on the current Ubuntu distribution; may work on others. If available, we recommend that you install a distribution-specific package instead.

http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/badastronomy/2012/04/30/map-and-measure-a-million-moon-craters/ I give talks about asteroid impacts quite often, and sometimes people ask me why we should worry about them. I reply, "Go outside and look at the Moon.

Map and measure a million Moon craters!

Simply Craters Map the history of the Moon, one crater at a time. In this task you'll mark craters & flag interesting images for followup. http://cosmoquest.org/mappers/moon/
