Just took this pic of sky from my front door, with some digital lens flare, too: -

A lot of contrails this morning when I opened my curtains. UK chemtrail Twitter is going to be busy!

Ravi replied to the thread Has Something Changed in the Near-Earth Meteoroid Environment? (American Meteor Society analysis).Where in my quote does it say "region of the sky"? It is from the observer's perspective at a certain time and place. It does not mean to say it is a physical point. -
Ravi replied to the thread 1971 Lake Cote / Lago de Cote UFO Aerial Photo.They did use forward motion compensation on those systems. I think your shutter test are not so applicable here.

What Is the Antihelion Radiant The antihelion radiant (also known as anthelion) is a point opposite of the Sun in the sky from the observer's perspective. This point is just like planets at opposition, except for meteors. When the Sun sets, the... -

HoaxEye reacted to Ivo Busko's post in the thread Transients in the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey with Like.
So far, I have found 63 candidate transients, out of 50 plates analyzed. Many more are still being worked on, and I don't expect to have a comprehensive data set and analysis for a long time still. As for that one pic, it is for illustration... -

Hi, I'm Ivo Busko, the author of that preprint. I see so many comments in here, that I can't possibly address everyone. Please feel free to respond to this post in case you have comments or questions, I will do my best to answer. And thanks for...

You are right that "stars do not have PSFs", in the sense that starlight gets first smeared by the atmosphere, and only then goes thru the telescope optics and is affected by the PSF. Because atmospheric smearing is orders of magnitude larger...

We can always select star images that are not saturated. In the plates I got so far, very few stars are saturated, and these are accounted for by the data analysis software.

I understand the Palomar plates aren't available because of policy issues. They are seen as irreplaceable assets. The Applause plates might be available for physical inspection though.
