We had to apply a fast tracking speed to the telescope (about 8.5 arcseconds per second of time). The adaptive optics loop struggled (I wish I had been there to press the buttons and try things. Gianluca did a good job I suppose but it's not the same, we really need a remote observing facility on Paranal.. hint hint). I then suggested to do some speckle imaging to attempt to reach the diffraction limit another way (than AO..) but the flux in Ks with 200 ms exposure was rather low. It's tough to hunt fast moving "rocks".</div> <div>As they once pointed their webcam towards the real time display, I took a screen capture at the right time and 2005 YU55 is the white spot close to the center. </div> <p /> <p><div class='p_embed p_image_embed'> <a href="http://getfile4.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/g0rt2xFRaZxJAhcXiWCFxb9fFSFoKH7OoNeHpXgCScUUab6zJlreSXR5ZAil/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.47.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="375" src="http://getfile5.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/TBecRBB204n5pIeARjs8kBRxokEEe85JGgBBBKPqCNHip6K70p8McKQEc0IU/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.47.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile5.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/kugCxhrqcFfochguSZH8q5zKar32LmYGIrsVMju1L0Q7Kz0bOIfhZjgL5los/0Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png"><img alt="0screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="373" src="http://getfile6.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/fZw0qMpv32vbTRff04zoajqksjB4MKXFdSGbiSrCuuWvgkjC9I7tiSSG154Q/0Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile0.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/QILkgP1P3AmGaeHGDREQB9HTSNG07UCaJDgiTtBIav5sP5CNklPmGkVss7dw/1Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png"><img alt="1screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="482" src="http://getfile1.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/YRAdT2X5OnklYdsZUfHXdU7KBWtR56ef3Q4kDToEcCTRppP7b0lfB0cMHH8h/1Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile9.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/VBSYGHedHMnADWxFXFyBXJ3V0bsfRDLeEpLQQy0OjzIqtTyPFOqhzC7whYSG/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="373" src="http://getfile1.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/lIcYH1QuPJvonpc2eaODbd8ZTkLCBRj0yaYYAga4GKcocRxMIPeh6VXsO2pe/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.46.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile5.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/xlxdBq0i8sxjlvDUMwZnhGJhG3wexRWZetOhUTDxhrGOqZJm2w7GJD22HF8f/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.40.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="375" src="http://getfile6.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/gBmVh3dnbWGwLran7LJWYnCSilmU9TyUDvRSlK6GkRUdsdOEaTa4PlVo2IeY/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.40.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile0.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/yNjO7OICxvM8FIzx4TGkVJkIVwhCaAKy3PW6gaY0oEgfgxe7syfHOxu0z2So/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.38.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="375" src="http://getfile1.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/1g4NgyThhi2eq8L4h3fLSUxM4hfLT7r2pJw5BKRbvCcMNaCmfvQ1cJU8JEAl/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.38.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile5.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/DT2vinKAiseSqdakppz2kxIByy6cOzh3LaU0711oMr27a8dBMe6nr7VVdpzx/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.33.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8" height="374" src="http://getfile6.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/juliengirard/wRap87xZArVG7Eu49jc8d28L6Kkh0XlAdValv5os1qoFONYsmBHPh3HpDXPe/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_8.33.png.scaled.500.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://getfile0.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/temp-2011-11-08/cpqgbjAHwzGpJcjuvFwnspChAyfGpnjFCBrjxtdituGbqzsECdHCqCctfwhc/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_9.56.39_PM.png.scaled1000.png"><img alt="Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_9" height="378" src="http://getfile4.posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/temp-2011-11-08/cpqgbjAHwzGpJcjuvFwnspChAyfGpnjFCBrjxtdituGbqzsECdHCqCctfwhc/Screen_shot_2011-11-08_at_9.56.39_PM.png.scaled500.png" width="500" /></a> <div class='p_see_full_gallery'><a href="http://juliengirard.posterous.com/2005-yu55-at-085-earth-moon-distance-from-the">See the full gallery on Posterous</a></div> </div> </p> <p>Thanks to all the people involved at ESO.</p></div>Spinning the milky way into twilight2011-04-29T02:16:40+02:002011-04-29T02:16:40+02:00http://djulik.free.fr/blog/2011/04/29/187-spinning-the-milky-way-into-twilightdjulikPhotographYAt the Paranal Observatory, I have a room with view!
