Again, I am learning to use ESO's public data archive. I am still trying to refine a strategy for searching for things to process.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Again, I am learning to use ESO's public data archive. I am still trying to refine a strategy for searching for things to process. So far I've also managed to accidentally download a batch of spectrographs along with some other promising objects which turned out to not have nearly enough exposure time. This was the nicest one.

Here, a faded supernova known as SN 1198BW was the target. If you click that link you can see where the supernova was because there is an arrow pointing to it in a different observation.

Reading the proposal abstract, I understand this was done to search for evidence of a massive star collapsing into a black hole.

Hubble was also used to look at this galaxy.

These data were collected by ESO's EFOSC2 instrument at La Silla. Wideband infrared, red, and green filters were assigned to red, green, and blue channels. The two larger galaxies were sharpened using a high pass filter set to overlay mode.

Red: I band (EFOSC.1999-08-10T00:21:40.119) Green: R band (EFOSC.1999-08-10T00:00:54.953) Blue: V band (EFOSC.1999-08-09T23:40:11.466)

North is up.
