看到更大的画面:罗塞塔任务业余观测活动和未来的教训
Seeing the Bigger Picture: The Rosetta Mission Amateur Observing Campaign and Lessons for the Future
摘要:
业余天文学家可以对彗星的研究作出有益的贡献。它们增加了时间覆盖和多尺度观测,可以帮助研究快速变化和大尺度彗星特征。我们的文件和审查的业余观测活动,以补充罗塞塔空间任务,包括提交的数据,并考虑从以前的彗星业余运动的经验,运动的有效性。我们报告的调查结果的运动参与者,业余天文学界和学校谁参加了彗星46 P观测活动。我们为未来的活动总结了经验教训,包括需要:明确目标;认识到活动对增加科学资本的更广泛影响;明确,一致,及时和量身定制的指导;易于上传的程序与内置的质量控制;以及定期沟通,反馈和认可。
英文摘要:
Amateur astronomers can make useful contributions to the study of comets. They add temporal coverage and multi-scale observations which can aid the study of fast-changing, and large-scale comet features. We document and review the amateur observing campaign set up to complement the Rosetta space mission, including the data submitted to date, and consider the campaign's effectiveness in the light of experience from previous comet amateur campaigns. We report the results of surveys of campaign participants, the amateur astronomy community, and schools who participated in a comet 46P observing campaign. We draw lessons for future campaigns which include the need for: clarity of objectives; recognising the wider impact campaigns can have on increasing science capital; clear, consistent, timely and tailored guidance; easy upload procedures with in-built quality control; and, regular communication, feedback and recognition.
