... have come to an end. No more meetings are planned. See letter below. See http://ad.usno.navy.mil/astro_events_dc/ for links to local professional astronomy colloquia and meetings. 2001 Nov 13 Dear Colleagues: I have received a number of recent e-mails inquiring about the next Washington Area Astronomers Meeting. I regret to report that the 21-year series of Washington Area Astronomers Meetings has come to an end. This series of professional meetings, held on at least a yearly basis, provided the many astronomers and astrophysicists in the Washington-Baltimore area with an opportunity to hear and discuss recent research results that spanned specialty and wavelength boundaries. The meetings were organized by an Executive Committee with representatives from the University of Maryland, Johns Hopkins University, Goddard Space Flight Center, Naval Research Lab, U.S. Naval Observatory, Space Telescope Science Institute, Applied Physics Lab, George Mason University, and Universities Space Research Association. The committee also had a member representing the many other institutions in the area with small numbers of astronomers on their staff (e.g., DTM, NASA HQ, Catholic U., etc.) Although the meetings developed a dedicated following of astronomers, attendance in recent years has been consistently below previous attendance figures and our expectations. In recent years, the Executive Committee tried various meeting format changes, without much success. In May, the committee reluctantly decided to bring the series of meetings to an end. The committee also decided at its final meeting that the remaining funds in the committee's bank account should go to furthering the progress of astronomy in developing countries. Part of the funds went to Don Wentzel, who is the IAU Chair for Teaching for Astronomy Development, for the purchase of a small telescope for variable star observations at the University of Zambia. The remainder went to the AAS fund for support of astronomy in developing countries, which is used when specific opportunities for such support arise.

Chinese astronomers report comet split April 25, 1996 Web posted at: 8:30 p.m. EDT BEIJING, China Chinese astronomers say their observations show the nucleus of comet Hyakutake has divided into five pieces, the Xinhua news agency said on Wednesday. Hyakutake, one of the brightest comets in recent years, has been under intense scrutiny from around the world, but so far there have been no confirmed reports of a splitting of the nucleus. Astronomers at the Purple Mountain Observatory in Nanjing in eastern Jiangsu province reported the split based on observations on April 6, 11, and 13, Xinhua said. The position and shape of the pieces were changing rapidly, they said. Astrophysicist Chen Daohan attributed the split to solar influences. Only 23 cases of comet nuclei splitting have been reported since the comet Biela split in 1846, Xinhua said. Such breakups are usually caused by the sun's gravitational pull. Comet Hyakutake was named after an amateur Japanese astronomer who discovered it on January 30. Reuters contributed to this report.

Kepler General Pages Home Maps Index Search Starry Messenger The Starry Messenger is Phase I of the Electronic History of Astronomy developed in the Whipple Museum of the History of Science and the Department of History and Philosophy of Science. This phase was directed by Dr Sachiko Kusukawa and Dr Liba Taub, and supported by funding from Trinity College, Cambridge. Dr David Chart was the Project Manager. The aim of this project is to make available electronically some aspects of the early history of astronomy for the use of students studying the History and Philosophy of Science in the University. The project has aspired to be 'educational' in another sense in that graduate students in the Department have contributed to its construction. By drawing on the rich collection of instruments and books in the Whipple Collection, the University Library and the Wren Library, we have sought to produce a history of astronomy which focuses on the uses of astronomy and its instruments, as well as on the practitioners of astronomy. We hope that this project goes some way towards illustrating the variety of uses (astrology, weather prediction, calendar reform) and inspirations (e.g. poetry), people in past societies and cultures found in astronomy.
