Filter Wheels for Astronomy. The USB filter wheel is unique in that it does not require a separate power supply when used with USB control - the high performance DC gearmotor runs entirely from the USB supply and consumes less than 100mA.

Filter Wheels for Astronomy

It is also capable of operation from a serial input, or from a switched hand controller, both of which power the wheel from a small dry battery. The wheel is light and slim, with an easy change system of thumbscrews to swap filter disks without tools. A variety of threaded adaptors is available - T thread, SCT thread and Takahashi 72mm thread at the moment. The adaptors can be swapped by using a small screwdriver to release three stainless screws and lifting off the adaptor flange. Each flange can be rotated to any angle before locking down, so that you can orient the wheel and camera into the optimum position. The price includes the wheel with one set of adaptors and filter disk - please choose the appropriate product below.

It's the astronomer's forecast.

Sept-Îles Clear Sky Chart

At a glance, it shows when it will be cloudy or clear for up to the next two days. It's a prediction of when Sept-Îles, QC, will have good weather for astronomical observing. The data comes from a forecast model developed by Allan Rahill of the Canadian Meteorological Center. CMC's numerical weather forecasts are unique because they are specifically designed for astronomers. But they have 763 forecast maps. So, I (Attilla Danko) wrote a script to generate the images like the one above which summarizes CMC's forecast images just for Sept-Îles and the surroundings out to about 15 Kms. There are charts for 4701 locations. Summary: In the rows labeled "sky conditions", find a column of blue blocks. Details: Read the image from left to right. The line, labeled Cloud Cover forecasts total cloud cover. TimeScapes: Rapture. Sky Show Thursday: Leonid Meteor Shower to Peak. {*style:<b>Featuring perhaps the fastest meteors of any shower, the Leonids this week may be easy to locate but hard to actually see, thanks in both cases to the moon. ( Get the scoop on last year's Leonids .)

</b>*} "The quarter-phase moon"—when the lunar disk appears half dark—"will interfere with meteor watching this year," said Ben Burress, staff astronomer at the Chabot Space and Science Center in Oakland, California. "But since [the moon] won't rise until after local midnight, and meteors can be seen in the earlier hours as well, there is a spell of time in the evening of the 17th when the sky will be moonless and darker, making for good conditions for viewing," Burress said.

For instance, sky-watchers worldwide can try looking up at the eastern sky during the predawn hours of Friday, when the Leonids' peak will produce about 20 visible shooting stars an hour. Astronomers also expect as many as three outbursts during which there could be upward of 200 meteors an hour. Focal Reducers.

Its concept is entirely new, because whilst it features advanced image processing and acquisition functions like existing software, its originality lies in the fact that it is entirely reprogrammable using simple scripts. It has been written for both Windows and Linux platforms and can control many telescope mounts and cameras or DSLRs. Why is Audela different? Audela is fully customizable.
