When
astronomers go to observation in the nights they need tables and properties
of stars and other objects. But this is very difficult to find these information
in that time because of dark sky and cold weather. We are designing a micro
computer for amateurs to see the properties of objects (Messier, NGC, ...) on
its screen by entering the name of the object. We think the
price of this system will be about 120$. This instrument is useful for amateurs
that have a
simple telescope and also for those that want to observe the sky without telescope.

From 1996 our
astronomy and electronics dept. are working on a hardware which used for
studding cosmic radiations. This hardware works with a software which can analyze the information
which is got from
the hardware. This hardware is connected to suitable detector and receives detector
messages then software analyzes these messages in 3 ms and shows results on
monitor. This software has two versions; DOS version and WINDOWS version. Now two
departments are working on them and we think this project will be finished
in 2001. This project is called Nuclear Pro. This project is very important
because Iranian researchers can research easily on cosmic radiations and other
subjects around it.

Astronomy &
Electronic dept. has designed a complete system which can control and guide a
telescope that connected to it. This system called Telescope Controlling
System (T.C.S.). By TCS astronomers can enter the names of stars and other
objects to the system by a keyboard, then telescope find that object and follows it. There are 15000
mass coordinates in TCS memory. TCS will be provided for Iranian astronomers in
next 6 months.
