Need specific Hubble images. Archive does not have them.

AI Thread Summary
The user is seeking specific Hubble Space Telescope images of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) from July 15, 2006, and January 12, 2007, but cannot find them in the Hubble archive. Nearby observations do not provide sufficient overlap for analysis due to alignment and exposure time issues. The user mentions the Hubble forums are currently down, limiting their options for assistance. Another participant suggests checking the Hubble Legacy Archive, although the user clarifies that those images do not meet their needs. The discussion highlights the challenges of accessing specific astronomical data and the importance of archival resources.

I'm doing a summer internship and my supervisor is currently away and uncontactable. He left me details of certain Hubble images to download and analyse asking for HST images of M31 with coordinates 00:42:52.534 +41:18:54.17 on 2006-07-15 and 2007-01-12. (YYYY-MM-DD)

The problem is that observations on these dates for M31 do not exist on the hubble archive. Nearby dates do not have enough of the field to be aligned with one another and there is also the issue of different exposure times.

I would have posted this in the Hubble forums but it's down at the moment afaik. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Those aren't what I'm looking for but thank you.
 

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...

Thread 'Could fast radio bursts be alien radar signals?'

Both have short pulses of emission and a wide spectral bandwidth, covering a wide variety of frequencies: "Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are detected over a wide range of radio frequencies, including frequencies around 1400 MHz, but have also been detected at lower frequencies, particularly in the 400–800 MHz range. Russian astronomers recently detected a powerful burst at 111 MHz, expanding our understanding of the FRB range. Frequency Ranges: 1400 MHz: Many of the known FRBs have been detected...
