Aloha Patrick add to that list XO-4b. This is another XO planet that Peter's team has discovered but not publicly announced yet. As you know, Peter has added 2 more search systems with future plans to have a total of 20 (that's 20 ME's, 40 Apogee cameras, 40 Canon 200mmF1.8 lenses and 60 rack mounted PC's) and with that, he'll be sorting thru tons of data and I'm sure finding more XO's. His goal is to find 25 XO planets by 2010. Aloha from Maui Rob
Rob, are you involved with XO-4b? I did the first story on 2b and 3b, and if you're Mr. 4b, I could write about that when you're ready. Thanks, jb
Hi Joe I/we are not involved YET. We've been remodeling our site and when that's done the photometer should be in as well as a new scope for the search and several computers. It has been some work but when we're finished we'll have a very nice site for a small club. Besides our use, we're getting involved in EPO projects and that is lots of fun especially when a student and/or parent looks up and goes 'Oh my!!!!'. We had one group from the mainland once and during the session a woman looks up and says clouds are coming in. She looks a little harder and then says "OH my God, it's the Milky Way, it did look like a big cloud rolling in, still gives me chicken skin relating that story. aloha Rob
I continue to try to talk my wife into heading out to the desert with me to do astronomy -- I don't think she's ever seen the Milky Way in all its glory. The thing that gets me is how hard it is to pick out constellations when all those spangles up there are obscuring the familiar patterns. Best wishes, Joe
Speaking of glorious view of the Milky Way, have most of you participated in the Bryce star party? We have signed up (if my husband doesn't get one of his recurring sinus infections that keep ruining our trips) and we were wondering how the event works? Is it like at SPOC where you can drive up and set our your scope and all accompanying goodies, or (especially if we are staying in a room, not camping) do you have to haul things into a special site? About what time to the crowds leave so that we can do some of our own observing and, last but not least (to me, anyway) how cold/windy is it typically? Any recommendations on things we should bring--besides our scope and basics? Thanks for any info! Ann M. Blanchard Executive Assistant to the Assoc.

Ann, the Bryce Canyon Astronomy Festival is a bit different. Mainly, it's much more structured. And, being in a National Park, there are rules (of course). See the website at: http://www.nps.gov/brca/planyourvisit/astronomyprograms.htm. The Park reserves a large parking area near the visitor's center for scopes, and to avoid conflicts with pedestrians, I believe that they want everyone set up well before dusk. They also don't like anyone leaving before the crowds have thinned. That usually doesn't take more than a couple of hours, then you mostly have the rest of the night to yourself, along with others who have set up scopes. Weather can vary, but even when it's "good" it will be cold at night. (The altitude is around 8,000 feet, I think.) So, bring very warm clothing. See you there.

I did, and I guess I didn't get from it if your scopes are next to your car, but if you say it is in there, I will dig it out an read more diligently. I mainly got the message that we should attend their training sessions to make sure we don't make any political/religious/etc. comments to the crowds (so much for this list group and their conversations about missing prostrates and mysterious Kolobs). I was also hoping for some folks to tell me about their own experiences at a Bryce event. Ann M. Blanchard Executive Assistant to the Assoc.

Scopes are set up in the middle of the large parking area, with cars generally parked around the perimeter. If you get there early enough, you can unload at the spot where you want to put your telescope, then move your car. I've been parked within 30 to 50 feet of my scope. I've had two great experiences at past festivals. I didn't make it last year, but I did the previous two years. Skies are clear, dark, and seeing can be very good. I've enjoyed conversing with folks from all over the planet: North and South America, Europe, Australia - even someone from India. I thank them all for visiting Utah and wish them an enjoyable time here, then I tell them to go back home and stay there when their vacation is over.

Between the heat stroke and the cold beer, I was beginning to understand, though in a very small way, what women must go through. For instance these people were walking down the sidewalk and as they passed they looked at me and said "hi", and I yelled back, "you want to make something of it"??? Yup, I have a new found respect... Quoting Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com>:

Let's see, 8000 feet depth is roughly 243 Atmospheres. 1 breath of air at that deapth, is the same volume as 243 breaths on the surface... We're going to need more air! Quoting Rob Ratkowski Photography <ratkwski@hawaii.rr.com>:
Awesome! Where's the nearest Hyperbaric chamber?
Probably at Pearl Harbor but a dive to 8000 ft ( depth of the Alenuihaha Channel between Maui and Oahu) probably would negate the need for one Molokini Island is pretty good though and off the Hana Coast is good too

Straight air. Nitrogen makes up about 79% of the air, Oxygen about 20%. As you descend, the partial pressure of these elements increase. At 5 Atmospheres, or, 132 feet, you inhale 5 times the concentration of each element, per breath, that you normally would on the surface. That's 5 times the nitrogen per breath, and it's the nitrogen that makes you loopy. The deeper you go the more loopy you get. Of course if you don't like the paranoid feeling or you start spitting out your regulator, or offering it to passing fish, you can simply ascend a little and the feeling will immediately go away. No hangovers. The down side is that the oxygen element also increases and becomes toxic and potentially fatal the deeper you go. Now how does this relate to astronomy??? At a certain depth, based on the individuals biological makeup, before you pass out, you will see stars. ;) Quoting erikhansen@TheBlueZone.net:

All this talk of diving, astronomy, and Hawaii... I can't take it anymore! I think it is time to get out of the office. Do you think that - maybe - we need to plan a group trip to Hawaii to see the Mauna Kea observatory? Rob could plan it. We could take in a little diving, I mean we might as well while we are there. Guy could plan it. Anyone interested? Rob and Guy especially... -A
BRING IT ON!!! I'd love to see an SLAS trip to Hawaii, I know that getting into Haleakala Observatories is a done deal and my contacts at MKO would get Keck, Subaru, Gemini, IRTF, UH88 for a start. And then in 2009 is <http://www.galileoslegacy.org/STS%20Home.htm>http://www.galileoslegacy.org/STS%20Home.htm e komo mai Rob
I don't think I want to try Nitrous Oxide any time soon. Quoting erikhansen@TheBlueZone.net:
I was just hoping you were ot using Nitrous Oxide, I have a good friend that worked in a Diving ICU in Miami that was basically a hyperbaric chamber.
Straight air. Nitrogen makes up about 79% of the air, Oxygen about
20%. As you descend, the partial pressure of these elements increase. At 5 Atmospheres, or, 132 feet, you inhale 5 times the concentration of each element, per breath, that you normally would on the surface. That's 5 times the nitrogen per breath, and it's the nitrogen that makes you loopy. The deeper you go the more loopy you get. Of course if you don't like the paranoid feeling or you start spitting out your regulator, or offering it to passing fish, you can simply ascend a little and the feeling will immediately go away. No hangovers. The down side is that the oxygen element also increases and becomes toxic and potentially fatal the deeper you go. Now how does this relate to astronomy??? At a certain depth, based on the individuals biological makeup, before you pass out, you will see stars. ;)
Quoting erikhansen@TheBlueZone.net:
These gases you guys inhale are they recreational? Sign me up.
That's the plan.

Don't worry because you will be sooo narked you wont even know how deep it is

Let's see, 8000 feet depth is roughly 243 Atmospheres. 1 breath of air at that deapth, is the same volume as 243 breaths on the surface... We're going to need more air!

Probably at Pearl Harbor but a dive to 8000 ft ( depth of the Alenuihaha Channel between Maui and Oahu) probably would negate the need for one Molokini Island is pretty good though and off the Hana Coast is good too

Lets just say at 150 feet while breating strait air you feel "great" At 175 feet the air bubles going past your ears sound like wind chimes and thinking is gone At 200 feet you run the risk of passing out ( that is not a good thing at 200 feet underwater) At 220 feet you start to run the risk of oxegen toxicisity witch is fatal so we don't go there with out a different gas mix But At 200 wow it all goes away when you get above about 100 feet.

That is a very lovely stretch of coast! Makes my heart ache (long time since my last saltwater fix!) --- Rob Ratkowski Photography <ratkwski@hawaii.rr.com> wrote:
Hey Guy
I did not bring a camera this time and I'm kicking myself that I didn't. The view from Baldwin Beach back to the West Maui Mts. was SPECTACULAR. The sky was a rich blue w/ nice white clouds floating by. The ocean was clear and reflected some of the blue, there were light trades and hardly anyone there along the 1+ mile of sand except for some joggers and a few blonds and this one very tanned girl .............................. I will bring a camera next time
Aloha Rob

Rich the water was about 76º today, real nice, next swell I'm going out and stroke a few curls. I'm also hoping to do a surfari to Lanai in a few weeks if I can get away for a few days aloha Rob
76 wow you would barely need a 3mm shorty to dive that bob Bob Moore Commerce CRG - Salt Lake City office 175 East 400 South, Suite 700 Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 Direct: 801-303-5418 Main: 801-322-2000 Fax: 801-322-2040 BMoore@commercecrg.com www.commercecrg.com -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces+bmoore=commercecrg.com@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces+bmoore=commercecrg.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Rob Ratkowski Photography Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 6:32 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] In today's Tribune Rich the water was about 76º today, real nice, next swell I'm going out and stroke a few curls.
