El tiempo de observación con los telescopios profesionales está muy solicitado. Sólo se concede tiempo a una fracción de los programas. Por eso no debe extrañar que los telescopios no paren en las fiestas.


Jaime Izquierdo atendiendo las explicaciones de la astrónoma de apoyo Tiina Liimets . 

En las fotos que mostramos se puede ver a Jaime Izquierdo (el doctorando) y a Jesús Gallego y el autor de esta entrada observando con el telescopio Isaac Newton en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (isla de La Palma) en las noches del 30 y 31 de diciembre.


Jesús y Jaime Z. al atardecer del 31 de diciembre

El tiempo fué excelente al contrario de lo que cuenta David en Cara y cruz de la astronomía. La foto del atardecer del 31 permite apreciar la calidad del cielo con el mar de nubes abajo. Incluso se aprecia la sombra de la isla en el horizonte.

Para mí no es la primera vez que paso la nochevieja observando como puede verse en Observando en Las Campanas.

  1. A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at sforzandoa suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.

  2. Now thinking about this site as a small example of what good independent writing looks like, and a stop at leonardward continued that exemplary status, the few sites that serve as good examples are sites worth holding up in conversations about quality and this one has earned that exemplary placement through patient consistent effort over time.

  3. Came away feeling slightly smarter than I was when I started, that is a real win, and a stop at vertolink added a bit more to that, the rare site that actually transfers some of its knowledge to the reader in a way that sticks rather than just creating an illusion of learning briefly.

  4.

  5. The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at blog33admit kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.

  6. Coming back to this one, definitely, and a quick visit to radicalweb only made me more sure of that, the kind of writing that makes you want to set aside time later rather than rushing through it now while distracted by everything else competing for attention on the screen today across so many tabs.

  7. A quiet kind of confidence runs through the writing, and a look at blog33about carried that same understated assurance, confidence without bragging is the most attractive register for online writing and the writers here have clearly developed it through practice rather than affecting it through stylistic tricks that would feel hollow eventually.

  8. My professional context would benefit from having this kind of resource available, and a look at ordertool extended the professional applicability, the rare site that contributes meaningfully to professional work rather than just personal interest is content with multiplied value and this one is providing that professional utility consistently across multiple pieces.

  9. Took a screenshot of one section to come back to later, and a stop at flavorfusionforge prompted another saved tab, the urge to capture and revisit specific pieces of content is something I rarely feel but when I do it tells me the work is worth more than the average passing read for sure.

  10. Good post, the kind that respects the reader by getting to the point quickly without skipping the details that matter, and a short look at christopherschroeder confirmed that approach is consistent across the site which is rare to find online these days, definitely a place I will return to soon.

  11. Reading this back to back with a similar piece elsewhere made the quality difference obvious, and a stop at budumaa only widened the gap, comparing content side by side is a useful exercise and the gap between this site and average competitors in the space is large enough to be noticeable from the first paragraph.

  12. On reflection this is the kind of writing that improves my taste for what is possible in the format, and a look at paulrobertson continued raising that bar, content that elevates my expectations rather than lowering them is doing important work in calibrating my standards and this site is participating in that elevation reliably.
