so lick observatory is more than 100 and 35 years old. it's no longer our very best research facility. but on the other hand, it's right in the heart of the barrier, where there are millions of people, hundreds of thousands of students who could potentially have experiences with it, and in every astronomer story, there's a moment when you're at a telescope for the first time, and you feel the universe around you. and you realize all this stuff that you've seen in books is real. we want to bring that moment to as many people as possible. astronomy is often a gateway science. it's often people's first chance to realize that they can understand and the fundamental complex complex parts of the universe and so we want to bring students not just from utah to california but from community colleges, california state universities and high schools up there and give them that meaningful moment of scientific discovery. that could be the spark that they need to sort of be inspired about their future. their career this great and you're gonna be able to

this camp is held every wednesday in the afternoon of the agricultural observatory camp with my presence . we hope that by the end of the 13th government, it will be a legacy of this observatory government. agriculture that the complete nobles and the eyes of the ministry of agricultural jihad will be for the future governments, and therefore, if the teacher has a complete observatory for orphans, it is not accurate on what basis to set the market. and our area experts give in provinces and cities, but it is interesting what we have as production in different sectors, which hazrat agha pointed out that this accurate estimate cannot be managed , the percentage of error, but we should reduce this error but raise the line for what does this work require? we have to have all the munro farming game accurately and geographically in the country and be able to determine the farmers of the cropping season exactly, the experts of the area and determine who did it, of course , we measure it with the help of satellite images today, so in this case, in an accurate way that in the country, what is the

advantages and disadvantages of a co-orbiting observatory and low-earth orbit? dr. clampin: i can take that one. i don't know a lot about that particular telescope, but i can say a couple things. first of all, you always worry about contamination environment around the space station, which can result in residue, volatiles getting onto the primary mirror that it potentially impacts your ability to do science in the ultraviolet. that said, otherwise i think potentially the performance is likely to be similar to that of hubble in the visible imaging bands given that it is in low-earth orbit. mr. babin: dr. finkelstein or dr. batalha? dr. batalha: i do not really know a lot about the platform so i cannot offer in detail comments about the comparison. i am sorry. mr. babin: all right, thank you. mr. finkelstein: same for me. mr. babin: ok. thank you and i will just yield back. mr. beyer: thank you dr. babin. we now recognize the gentleman from new jersey, mr. norcross. mr. norcross: thank you, chairman and i would like to thank the witnesses for being here and keepin

the national observatory of iran is the achievement of the country's experts, which one hundred stagesof designing, building and installing it on the peak it was carried out in kashan by the domestic elites. with the implementation of this project, iran joined the group of leading countries in the field of space exploration and astronomy. est said that this project was to build a middle-class telescope of the fourth class , which would put the possibility of observation at the disposal of the astronomers of iran and other countries . inside the country, the central instrument of this observatory is in kashan's circling herd has installed a world telescope with a size of three and four tenths of a meter. this scientific achievement is the result of the efforts of stephen's technologists, which is now localized in the country and its development plans are expanding , so it is that the evaluation phase and the sco in the coming months and in the answer to the questions of the future is to continue. the basis of the announcement of the vice president's office of science, technology and kno

short summary of january that has passed, and i will simply tell you the conclusions made by our observatoryoris sreznevsky and some statistics that it's actually very interesting. well, for example, the coldest day in the past month was january 7th -10° , we survived -10, it's already the coldest, the warmest was the first and second of january, the maximum air temperature rose to 13° of heat with a small tail this is a cultural record, since these days of january, the first and second days of january have become the warmest in 143 years of observations in the capital, in general , 16 temperature records were set in kyiv in the last month , so record lovers can read more carefully later, well, it was a rather dry month, that is there was not much precipitation, it took the 20th place, again according to the information of the boris sraznevsky observatory, it took the 20th place in the ranking of the driest months. well , there was a record, well, from the records, we return to the usual february weather, but first, as always, about magnetic storms, now for your attention a prognostic diagra
