Hi all,

SEDSat-II is a global student satellite project involving several students from around the globe.The goal of the project is to build a picosatellite (cubesat)through international student involvement.

The project has already been known internationally. It's presented at the United Nations and the International Astronomical Congress (IAC).It has also been receiving inspiring comments from leaders in space sector across the world.

As most academic projects, SEDSat-II is usually in need for fresh student members who can be initiative, hard-working and highly motivated.

1 Ramadhan 1430 H

This year, in order to decide when Ramadhan came, some teams from Badan Rukyat Indonesia conducted continued observation. Theoretically, based on Hisab’s data, on August 20, 2009, lunar should have disappeared. Meanwhile, on Friday, 21 August 2009, Hilal (new moon) potentially would appear because it passed minimum visibility curve that was documented in RHI’s files. However, the Madden Julian Oscillationo phenomena made not all the points were appropriate to observe Hilal. Only 4 places from 9 in RHI’s group that were able to see Hilal

Commenced in 2004, "Star Party" is an observational astronomy competition where student groups from different parts of Sri Lanka compete. Organised by the astronomical societies of Ananda College, Colombo and Mahamaya Girls' College, Kandy, it is held annually and has gained an excellent reputation over the years. Star Party 2009 was named as the main IYA2009 event in Sri Lanka. It was a huge success, attracting more than 50 groups.

"This agreement starts a Sri Lankan national space capability by providing an Earth Observation satellite and commencing the definition and design of Sri Lanka’s first communications satellite.

Nepal Academy of Science and Technology,NAST,Khumaltar,Lalitpur and Nepal Astronomical Society,NASO,Kathmandu jointly organized a talk programme on The Impact of Astronomy in Nepalese Civilization presented by Mr. Suresh Bhattarai,founder member of NASO, to mark the 400th Anniversary of Galileo's Telescope at NAST Hall during 11:30-13:30 Hrs.

On the 20th and 21st of August 2009 the second International conference on Nanosatellites will be held in Lima, Peru. This is the second time such initiative started by Peruvian engineers and professors will take place at the Center for Technological Information and Communications at the National University of Engineering (UNI).

This Center is in charge of the design of a national concept for the implementation of a Peruvian small satellite program. This challenging project will be carried out with the involvement of governmental and educational institutions from Peru as well as abroad.

this is the atomic model based on the impetali* process where matter/antimatter pairs define the proton
increased frequency of thre impetali process allows for heavier instances of the element, where it would be considered a nuetron, it is just increased frequency.

at the quanta, on the electron side, is where the electromagnetic spectrum is released from the atom because of lack of field to contaiin the electrical energy
based on the resonance ( AMPLITUDE AND FREQUENCY )of the atom in question
