Abstract: Find an Asteroid, Comet or Other Moving Solar System Object. Follow the motions of known solar system objects. Search to discover new ones. There are countless asteroids and comets orbiting the Sun. Plenty for everyone to track and map. All are interesting. Some astronomers are searching for ones that are in Near Earth Orbit and other astronomers search for dim ones way out by the orbits of Pluto and beyond.
Abstract: Kitanomaru Internet Telescope (KIT) is located on the rooftop of Science Museum of Tokyo (Kitanomaru Park, Chiyoda, Tokyo). KIT is destined to support the "alive" astronomical studies in the fields of schools and social educations through obtaining images of celestial objects, archiving database and providing them to users, with the Internet.
Abstract: Many astronomy curricula tap young people's natural curiosity about the universe. Generating interest in astronomical images is not a problem. The challenge is providing an approach that engages students in scientific thinking and analysis of images that leads to an understanding of the technology of telescopes, optical systems, and imaging cameras. Our effort has been to find a way for teachers with only minimal experience in this area to guide their students efficiently through the maze of variables that go into producing useful images while maintaining a foundation in understanding the science involved
