International Epsilon Aurigae Campaign 2009 - 2011

8 February 2010

Every 27.1 years the very mysterious variable star epsilon Aurigae  undergoes an eclipse that lasts nearly 2 years. This is an easily found 3rd magnitude star visible from the northern hemisphere. It is one of a trio of stars that form a small triangle called "The Kids" just southwest of Capella. While there is no shortage of theories, the precise nature of the star system remains a mystery. During the last eclipse 1982.1984 a Campaign was formed to observe and try to figure out answers. Great deal of information was obtained, yet there are still many unanswered questions. Beginning in the summer of last year (2009) the latest eclipse started. In 2006 an International Campaign was again formed and an official web site devoted to the current eclipse created. See http://www.hposoft.com/Campaign09.html

We have amateur and professional observers from around the world (18 countries) providing photometric and spectroscopic data of the star system. Some observers are also providing interferometry and polarimetry data. We have published 16 Newsletters so far for this Campaign. We encourage anyone interested in this star system to join the Campaign.

"Worlds of the Sky": the first live webcast from a professional telescope of an exoplanet's transit

3 February 2010

On Saturday, February 13, 2010 the exoplanet XO-3b will transit its parent star. Although the phenomenon itself is not spectacular, as this planet orbits its star in less than four days, it will be accompanied by an extraordinary event on Earth: for the first time ever, a professional telescope will observe the transit and the light curve will be webcast live.

The project is called "Worlds of the Sky", quoting the title of a famous book by Camille Flammarion, and is organised by the Brera and Palermo Observatories of the Italian National Institute of Astrophysics, in cooperation with several associations of amateur astronomers.

The unprecedented event will be broadcast live on the website www.crabnebula.it on February 13, from 7 p.m. on. The webcast will allow users around the world to watch the evolution of the light curve of the star XO-3 as the planet passes in front of it, monitored by the 1.34-metre Ruths Telescope of the Brera Observatory in Merate, Italy. The real-time data will be accompanied by comments of astronomers in English, Italian and Chinese.

The organisers intend to involve as many enthusiasts, students and teachers as possible in this novel outreach project, and wish that amateurs around the globe will monitor the event with their own instrumentation, joining efforts in this planetary "guided" observation of an otherworldly event.

The transit of an exoplanet is one of the main techniques used by astronomers to detect planets orbiting stars other than our Sun, monitoring the variations of a star's brightness.

The planet "featured" in this event, XO-3b, was discovered in 2007. It is an extremely massive one, about 13 times as massive as Jupiter, and orbits very closely the star XO-3, also known as GSC 03727-01064, in the constellation Camelopardis. The transit will last about 170 minutes.

A promotional trailer of the event, in English, Italian and Chinese, can be found on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsbW5TRo9g0

Global Astronomy Month – April 2010

2 February 2010

Let’s Continue the Celebration of the Universe!

Professional and amateur astronomers, educators and all astronomy enthusiasts worldwide are invited to celebrate the Universe in April 2010, during Global Astronomy Month – an international project that builds on the achievements of The International Year of Astronomy 2009, by combining a wide array of activities with the possibility of sharing experiences in real-time!   

The unprecedented success of 100 Hours of Astronomy (100HA) in April 2009 showed what could be accomplished by a highly motivated and energized international community of passionate people, creating even greater enthusiasm for a follow-up experience. As challenging as it may be to follow the historic success of 100HA, Astronomers Without Borders (AWB) has set the bar even higher, inviting astronomy enthusiasts worldwide to celebrate the Universe for an entire month!

Taking place during April 2010, Global Astronomy Month (GAM2010) is a community-based effort aiming to achieve international collaboration and more interaction between participants than ever before. The primary idea of GAM2010 is to share ideas, experiences and successes, allowing communities that organize their own events to carry their ideas and inspiration forward.

The excitement of bringing people together from all countries regardless of age, race or beliefs – all awed by the wonders of the Universe – is something that will long outlive the International Year of Astronomy 2009 (IYA2009)”, says Mike Simmons, President of AWB and co-chair of the 2009 100HA effort. “GAM2010 will build on that passion and energy, starting from a simple idea and building to a global project by multiplying its effect as it goes. Like 100 Hours of Astronomy, GAM will be a social movement in the astronomy community”

With an entire month available, GAM2010 event organizers have four advantages over 100HA in 2009: 1) the ability to plan events at the best times in their countries, 2) time to reschedule weather-impacted outdoor events, 3) more ways to engage participants and the public with a wider array of projects and activities, and 4) the opportunity to be inspired by – and be the inspiration for – fellow astronomy enthusiasts around the world.

GAM2010 includes the most popular events for both astronomers and the public: telescopes will be available for the viewing of the Moon, Saturn and other objects, not only at observatories and planetariums, but also in public locations; dark sky observing of distant objects, Messier marathon, Lyrid Meteor Shower observing parties and events for the annual celebration of Astronomy Day (April, 24) are just some of the activities planned; special events by IYA2009-created global programs, observing with telescopes controlled over the Internet, webcasts and podcasts of special presentations, exhibitions, public competitions, astrophotography contests and workshops and much more will ensure that there is something for everyone.

The GAM2010 web site is the hub of all the activity, providing up-to-date and even real time information, as well as acting as a platform for sharing ideas and results that will foster international cooperation in event planning, creating even more a sense of a global community.

The GAM2010 On-line Broadcast Channel offers organizers worldwide a place to show videos of their events, give presentations of interest to the general public and feature live streams from around the world in their own events.

The GAM2010 Blogs are a valuable source of information and event promotion. GAM bloggers will describe important projects and events, while local organizers can post information on their own activities. Social media and networks will also be used to expand the audience and the excitement.

Come and join the celebration this April, as Global Astronomy Month will bring together thousands of passionate individuals and hundreds of organizations worldwide to share their enthusiasm and innovation, and to connect people through this great sense of sharing! It’s a month celebrating of One People, One Sky!
