First time I've stopped and read that particular sign. There are several of them and today, after traveling through there many times before today, was the first time I've stopped to read that specific sign.

Also, you will be pleased to know I didn't stop to photograph today the freshly killed, hold your applause please.

New Nova In the Night Sky: A Star Explosion Explained

By Joe Rao, SPACE.com Skywatching Columnist August 19, 2013 11:56am ET

New Nova In the Night Sky: A Star Explosion Explained

Photographer Justin Ng photographed Nova Delphinus 2013 on August 18, 2013. He is based in Singapore.

Stargazers are thrilled over the surprise appearance of a star explosion, known as a nova, in the night sky last week, but there is more to this cosmic event than meets the eye.

The new Nova Delphinus 2013 was first spotted in the constellation Delphinus (The Dolphin) by Japanese amateur astronomer Koichi Itagaki on Aug. 14 and quickly confirmed by other skywatchers soon after. Novas are stars that are undergoing a powerful eruption, causing them to brighten significantly, so that they appear suddenly in the night sky where previously no star was visible.

Since its discovery, this nova has brightened rapidly to become an object visible to the naked eye, though stargazers will need to be away from city lights in order to see it clearly. [See photos and sky maps of the new nova star explosion]

Just how frequently does a nova become bright enough to be seen without the use of binoculars or a telescope?

On average, new novas are detected about once every four or five years. Over the last 112 years, there have been 47 novas that have flared into naked-eye view. The majority of these — 26 — were quite dim and could only be positively identified by using a star chart or sky atlas.

Novas that become as bright as Nova Delphini are more readily visible. Since 1901 there have been 13 novas in this category, which occur about once every 10 years.

Even brighter objects, which shine about as much as Polaris the North Star and the other brightest stars in the sky, have been few. In fact, only six have appeared since 1901, meaning one occurs about every 20 years. However, we have not had one of these bright nova since 1975, so it seems we are overdue for another.

Then there are those novas that are super-bright, attaining a magnitude of zero or even brighter. In 112 years, we have had only two that have become as brilliant as that; on average, we get one about every 60 years. However, we have not had a nova in this category since 1918, so certainly we are long overdue for a bright new star.

The brightest nova in recent years was Nova Scorpii, also known as V1280 Scorpii. It attained a peak brightness of magnitude +3.9 on Feb. 4, 2007. The brightest nova in the last 70 years was Nova Cygni, also known as V1500 Cygni. This star attained a peak brightness of magnitude +1.7 on Aug. 30, 1975. And since 1901, the brightest nova ever — landing in the super-bright category — was Nova Aquilae, also known as V603 Aquilae. It attained a peak brightness of magnitude -1.4 on June 9, 1918, virtually matching Sirius, the brightest star in the sky!

Daybreak

(from internet transcript)

(conversation with Gaius Baltar, Caprica Six, and his dad, in a flashback prior to the Cylon Massacre of the Twelve Colonies of the humans)

No one is stealing from you, Dad, all right? Now you just shut up.
You're in enough trouble already.
I'm out of here.
You're lucky I don't call the cops.
Yes.
Yes, we are, Nurse Barbara.
Thank you.
Now, listen, I'll pay you double, triple.
I thought I asked you to wait in the car.
This be the new one you be banging, eh? None of your bloody business.
Nurse Barbara, please.
I've got 500 cubits, 1,000.
for you to stay the night! Please! I'll take all the knives away! He'll be on liquid diet forever.
Just spend one frakking night! How about you, love? Bet you charge a lot more than that, eh? Shut your filthy mouth.
Stop being so disgusting.
This is your father, Gaius.
Not that you'd ever know it.
You see, Gaius is ashamed of his family.
I need this.
I need this like a frakking hole in the head.
Even his accent.
Stupid bastard actually changed his accent.
Would you believe that? That is the third nurse in a row now, Dad.
The third nurse.
Do you have any idea how much this is costing me? How much it costs, that's all he cares about now.
Not the way he was brought up, I can tell you.
But he don't like to think about that.
No, he don't like to think about living on a farm and doing a day's honest, hard work.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Enough! Enough! Shut up! Shut up right now! I won't stand here one moment longer and listen to your ridiculous working-class-hero rant.
Look at you! Look at your shirt that I bought you.
How you dribble and treat these things.
I'll break it down for you, Dad! You're an obnoxious, spiteful, cantankerous old git, and you're frakking lucky you're not living on the frakking street! Big man cursing his father.
Makes you feel important, don't it? (SIGHS) Gaius, maybe we should Maybe you should've stayed in the car, which is what I asked you to do.
I'm afraid that I'm going to have to ask you to leave now.
I'm sure that the driver can see you to your home.
I'm gonna spend the rest of this lovely evening with my dad.
Good night.

STS-82 Day 5 Highlights

Back to STS-82 Flight Day 04 Highlights:

On Saturday, February 15, 1997, 7:00 a.m. CST, STS-82 MCC Status Report # 9 reports:

Early this morning, astronauts Greg Harbaugh and Joe Tanner completed a 7 hour, 27 minute spacewalk in the cargo bay of the Shuttle Discovery to replace and install several new engineering components in the Hubble Space Telescope.

After being awakened late Friday afternoon, Harbaugh and Tanner completed the checkout of their spacesuits well ahead of schedul, allowing them to start the second spacewalk of the flight at 9:25 p.m. Central time, almost one hour ahead of schedule.

Harbaugh and Tanner went right to work, replacing a degraded Fine Guidance Sensor and a failed Engineering and Science Tape Recorder with new spares. Payload controllers verified that the new Fine Guidance Sensor and the new tape recorder were healthy and ready to support the telescope's scientific efforts. The astronauts also installed a new unit known as the Optical Control Electronics Enhancement Kit, which will further increase the capability of the new Fine Guidance Sensor.

During the spacewalk, the astronauts and flight controllers took note of cracking and wear incurred by thermal insulation which protects several areas of the telescope. The part of the telescope which is in the direction of travel and always exposed to the sun has experienced slight cracks and delamination during almost seven years of time on orbit. Flight controllers and Hubble project managers are evaluating whether some repair work might be performed to certain portions of the telescope's insulation during the final spacewalks of the flight.

As Harbaugh and Tanner neared the end of their work in the cargo bay, Discovery's small maneuvering jets were fired for about 20 minutes to gently raise Hubble's altitude by about 1.8 nautical miles. The reboost effort by Commander Ken Bowersox and Pilot Scott Horowitz will be performed again near the end of the final two spacewalks and should raise Hubble's altitude by a total of about five nautical miles. Harbaugh and Tanner returned to Discovery's airlock at 4:52 A.M., with more than 14 hours of spacewalk servicing time having been logged during the first two excursions in the Shuttle's cargo bay.

The astronauts will begin an eight-hour sleep period at 9:25 this morning and will be awakened at 5:25 this afternoon for the third spacewalk by Mark Lee and Steve Smith. They will replace an ailing Data Interface Unit, swap out another science and engineering tape recorder for a new solid state recorder and will replace a faulty Reaction Wheel Assembly for a new unit to help steer the telescope to its targets.

Discovery and the Hubble Space Telescope continue to orbit the Earth every 90 minutes at an altitude of approximately 370 statute miles with all of the Shuttle's systems still operating in excellent condition.

On Saturday, February 15, 1997, 5:00 p.m. CST, STS-82 MCC Status Report # 10 reports:

With two spacewalks complete, the STS-82 crew has met the minimum success criteria for the second Hubble Space Telescope servicing mission, but still has plenty of work left to do.

Tonight, astronauts Mark Lee and Steve Smith will leave the crew cabin for their second spacewalk of the flight. Lee and Smith are scheduled to install a new Data Interface Unit in HST and swap out a science and engineering tape recorder with a new solid state recorder. Unlike the older reel-to-reel recorder, the new digital recorder has no reels, no tape or moving parts to wear out and unlimited lifetime. Data is digitally stored in computer-like memory chips until HST's operators at the Goddard Space Flight Center play it back. Lee and Smith also will replace a Reaction Wheel Assembly that failed late last year with a new unit to help steer the telescope to its targets.

The Hubble Space Telescope was designed for on-orbit servicing with three maintenance scenarios in mind. They are incorporating technological advances into the science instruments as was done with the installation of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer, replacing items such as the tape recorders and reaction wheels which normally degrade over time; and correcting random equipment failures or malfunctions.

If there is time during the spacewalk, Lee and Smith may perform some simple operations to assist engineers in planning for the possibility of performing some repairs to the aging thermal covering of the telescope. Controllers and astronauts have noticed areas on the telescope where the insulation is peeling. The tasks include bringing materials that could be used for the repair back into the crew cabin, assessing how brittle the insulation is and testing how well Kapton tape adheres to the insulation.

The spacewalk is officially scheduled to begin at 10:20 p.m., but for the first two EVAs, crew members completed their preparations early so that they were ready to begin between 9 and 9:30 p.m.

Also during the sixth day of the mission, Commander Ken Bowersox and Pilot Scott Horowitz will fire the small steering jets in the next phase of the effort to reboost the telescope. The first reboost burn raised Hubble's altitude by about 1.8 nautical miles, and a second unplanned burn, which was required to move Discovery a safe distance from some orbital debris, raised the orbit another half mile. Overall, flight controllers plan to raise HST's orbit about 7 statute miles.








https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Space_Telescope

Hubble Space Telescope

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was launched into low Earth orbit in 1990 and remains in operation. It was not the first space telescope, but it is one of the largest and most versatile and is well known as both a vital research tool and a public relations boon for astronomy.

Future

Hubble orbits the Earth in the extremely tenuous upper atmosphere, and over time its orbit decays due to drag. If it is not re-boosted, it will re-enter the Earth's atmosphere within some decades, with the exact date depending on how active the Sun is and its impact on the upper atmosphere. If Hubble were to descend in a completely uncontrolled re-entry, parts of the main mirror and its support structure would probably survive, leaving the potential for damage or even human fatalities.
