About the Live event

 

Our system will be refreshing the astro-data from the telescope about every 15 to 25 seconds.

This means the image will appear static, then reset itself automatically. 

If you watch for a period of perhaps 3 minutes or so, you will notice appreciable changes.

Movie: the lunar eclipse sequence from the live telescope session, from our 2011 event

The Telescope tracking is set on the Moon itself, so it will appear to stay in place – while the background stars will move each time it refreshes. 

There can also be unforeseen glitches, (such as viewer overload) so please be patient! You don’t have to click anywhere else – when the broadcast is happening it will be right here...

During the broadcast the images can be saved on your local PC.

At the end of the event one could use the saved images in order to conduct amazing (and simple) science works!

So you could witness interesting phenomenons, watch them and measure them.

This is a wonderful opportunity for educational institutions or individual, interested in making cool real time astronomy projects, while bonding with other people from accross the world. The webcast is weather permitted.
