Starship Asterisk*

I admire and appreciate the way you are able to keep threads organized instead of all over the place. It's got to take up a lot of your time, thanks for that!

My rating would be a 70. My reasoning is that the images are good for the most part all evening with only 3 brief exceptions of clouds going by and the last few images at the end of the movie are distorted.

RH appears to be working normally and returning nice images of the moon. Photometry files are empty but accessable.

Looks like RH is back online. The image isn't great, but it's good to see it operational once again. Great work!

Noctuas - please don't look! Every time you look it goes offline! ,.. Siding Spring has been ok for the past week,.. Oops ... Sorry I just looked. Hope I didn't jinx it again :oops: But I did see that the last four images seem messed up though. Looks similar to the images from Hawaii after the sun ...

RH Concam appears to be offline showing yesterday's date.

As of 3/14/05 the photometry files are back! Hooray!

I can't figure out if RH if online or not, camera shows on, and the skys are clear, but I'm not getting a clear image of anything for the last 2 or 3 days. By the way, could someone give me pointers as to how to use the fitsview program? I can load an image, but I don't know what to do with it once ...

Nice image from RH this evening. Not nearly as nice as CP though!

RH Concam is back online and returning a nice image. Photometry files still not available.

RH Concam appears to be malfunctioning. Shows on but the date is 2005/03/06. Could be adjustments are being made?

Really nice image from RH this evening. Please tell me what the yellow box is indicating to me and what the streak is going from top to bottom of the image http://nightskylive.net/rh/ Well, that was dumb, this is live! By the time you read this message you aren't going to see any steak going from t...

The RH Concam 2 continues to operate normally. Hopefully the weather will improve soon as the moon is waning and I am looking forward to a good image.

Hi, I was going through CP archive randomly and cannot access any of the opacity maps. The Photometry files are working, but show a zero in the C5c-Bc column in each archive I accessed. My Concam at RH doesn't have opacity maps, I guess because it's a Concam-2 and CP is a Concam-3? Anyway, is this p...

RH Concam shows on but still shows yesterday's date. The photometry files are still not available, Vic will have someone look into that.

RH seems to be working fine with the exception of the photometry files, however, we have overcast skies and a full moon. I can't wait for a nice dark clear night.

You're right, I went through randomly and cannot access any of the photometry files for any date. I must have been in a different Concam site when I did access photometry and thought I was in RH.

Can I contact John Oliver about this myself, or has that already been done?

I am also not able to access the photometry files for RH. Just two days ago, I was having no problem with it.

I did it! Thanks for the help.

RH is up and running although the moon light obscures most of the image.

I'm getting a nice image from the CP concam today with the exception of the bright spot (pesky moon!). I agree the communication tower or whatever it is doesn't really seem to interfere with what you can see. I also agree that the CP concam should teach those other concams how it's done!
