I Is there any international astronomy competitions for adults

AI Thread Summary
There are international astronomy competitions available for adults, though specific details can be hard to find. Participants typically need a capable telescope and camera to engage in activities like discovering comets or asteroids, which can lead to naming rights. One notable competition mentioned is held annually in Norway, although it may not directly relate to astronomy. Amateur astronomers can also explore opportunities through various online platforms and organizations. Engaging in these activities can provide valuable experience and recognition in the field of astronomy.

Thread 'How feasible is home radio astronomy?'

Is a homemade radio telescope realistic? There seems to be a confluence of multiple technologies that makes the situation better than when I was a wee lad: software-defined radio (SDR), the easy availability of satellite dishes, surveillance drives, and fast CPUs. Let's take a step back - it is trivial to see the sun in radio. An old analog TV, a set of "rabbit ears" antenna, and you're good to go. Point the antenna at the sun (i.e. the ears are perpendicular to it) and there is...

Thread 'Visible light Over Large Distances'

How does light maintain enough energy in the visible part of the spectrum for the naked eye to see in the night sky. Also, how did it start of in the visible frequency part of the spectrum. Was it, for example, photons being ejected at that frequency after high energy particle interaction. Or does the light become visible (spectrum) after hitting our atmosphere or space dust or something? EDIT: Actually I just thought. Maybe the EM starts off as very high energy (outside the visible...
