Stargazers: October 2014
https://blogstargazers.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2014. Optics, Atmosphere and Astronomy. Several atmospheric phenomena exist that usually catches our eye. They usually result from optical effects in the atmosphere such as refraction, diffraction, scattering, etc. The most commonly known atmospheric effect is that of rainbows. The presence of water droplets in the atmosphere causes the sun's light to be reflected and refracted into its component colors. Here are some other atmospheric effects:. The blue color of our sky is a result o...

Stargazers: February 2015
https://blogstargazers.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. Solar Image: 28 January 2015. Solar image for January 28. Still low sunspot activity in the Sun. AR 2290 is now receding from the Earth facing side. The previous grouping with no NOAA designation is now labeled as active region (1)2294. Below are the 3D rendering of AR 2294 from yesterday and today. There is a huge difference in the structure of the sunspot group. Thursday, February 26, 2015. Solar and Lunar Image. Thursday, February 19, 2015. The Besao Stone Clock Formation.

Stargazers: March 2015
https://blogstargazers.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. Largest Telescopes in the Philippines. Here is another Philippine astronomy demographic regarding the largest telescope in the Philippines. In terms of astronomical optics "bigger is better". When the aperture (diameter of objective lens/mirror) of a telescope is larger it results to higher light gathering power, resolution, and useful magnification. Aperture: 18" (45 cm). Status: In use, however mount is misaligned due to sinking ground of the observatory. Aperture: 16" (40 cm).

Aside from doing astronomy, I am also a visual artist. It serves as both a hobby and a stress relief. Here I share and advocate astronomy and the beauty of the cosmos by incorporating astronomy into my artworks. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This content is not yet available over encrypted connections.

Stargazers: January 2015
https://blogstargazers.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 12, 2015. Solar Image: 12 January 2014. Here is today's whole disk image and 3D isophote rendering of the sunspot groups. This will be my last post for now before traveling back to the Andromeda Mobile Planetarium for work. I might get to image again on Saturday or Sunday when I get back to my equipment. I was hoping I can document the growth and development of AR 2259 [McIntosh: Eko] but it looks like I'll only get to catch up on that via the internet. Sunday, January 11, 2015. Today is ...

Stargazers: December 2014
https://blogstargazers.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 21, 2014. Solar Image: 22 Dec 2014. I had to image in between brief moments of sunlight through gaps in the clouds. Seeing wasn't that good so I opted to do some 3D isophote rendering of the three largest transit-ARs. The two large sunspot groups receding from the solar disk have been actively flaring; in fact AR (1)2242 produced an intense X1.8-class flare on Dec 20 00:27 UT. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
