Online Lab Astronomical Imaging

Online Lab Astronomical Imaginge Purpose Apply the techniques astronomers use to create and work with astronomical images. Work with a remote telescope observing to get images of the sky. What You Will Neede A computer with internet access. You will also need some lead time when you request an image from the remote observatory it usually takes at least 24 hours before you receive that image, so you should start this one a couple of days before you intend to turn it in.e Preparatione It helps if you have reviewed the online lecture 06-Telescopese Backgrounde Taking a picture of the sky that can be used for astronomical measurements is a little more involved than pulling out your phone and turning on the camera app but it still involves a lot of the same technology. In fact, one of first applications of the sort of digital cameras that are now commonly used was for astronomical imaging. In the last 20 years robotics technology has developed to the point that astronomers have developed robotic telescopes telescopes that are programmed to make observations of the sky remotely with just a computer controlling them. One use for these telescopes is education purposes anyone can request an image of a specific object in the sky using some of these remote telescopes. We'll be working through the Observing with NASA site to request images from the "ggg&gggpmnetwork of remote telescopes. This is a set of small telescopes in several locations around the world. Once we get the images, we'll process them using the JS9-4L image processing software. This software has a small number of controls that are designed specifically for working with astronomical images.
