If you are planning to participate to this project, please check that you fulfill the following requirements:

      1. Adequacy of Astronomical Equipment: A telescope, both refractor or reflector at least 6΄΄ wide, with motor drive for the hour angle and a CCD camera (and NOT a Web-Cam, various Digital Cameras, single frames from Video-Cams etc) is to be considered as adequate astronomical equipment. Variations from the above mentioned equipment (especially Web-Cams) are currently being tested in the Observatory to find out if they can be used in this project. Finally, a special mask (cardboard-made or plastic), which anyone can make, and of cource a PC are also needed.
      2. Because the data reduction requires special software, which has been written in the Observatory for this specific purpose, the data send by each amateur astronomer should have some consistency, thus limiting the error possibility and enabling the software to run without problems. That is why anyone wishing to participate in the project should conduct the observations in the way described inb this guide.

                   Possible participants should fill out the application form and send it to this address.
                   For further information please, contact us or read carefully the instructions (in Greek).
