When you combine different datasets of the same target there are some issues you’ll need to address almost immediately to be successful.  Such is the case with 1-Click Observation data for my attached image of the ga

Astronomers at MIT have discovered a stellar binary system named ZTF J1813+4251 with an extremely short orbit, the two stars circling each other every 51 minutes.

Today we are announcing the new contests for October 2022! Are you new to our contests? Read the general rules first.
