主題: 巡天系统 NGTS帮助搜寻第二个地球 + MEarth 作者: peter 於 2015-01-17 11:33:44 http://www.cnbeta.com/articles/363331.htm
一个新的巡天项目开始运作，它将帮助我们搜寻与地球相似的系外行星，甚至有望找到“第二个地球”。这套系统安装在南美洲智利的高海拔沙漠之中，名为“下一代凌星巡天”(NGTS)，它将自动扫描夜空，寻找它的目标。该项目是一个广域巡天观测系统，包括一个包含12台望远镜的阵列，每一台成员望远镜的口径均为20厘米 “下一代凌星巡天”(NGTS)由一个阵列的20厘米口径望远镜组成，将致力于发现海王星大小甚至更小的系外行星，其直径大致介于地球直径的2~8倍之间 (http://static.cnbetacdn.com/article/2015/0117/f180c50430e8727.jpg) http://www.ngtransits.org/ Next-Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) http://phys.org/news/2015-01-exoplanet-hunting-telescopes-paranal.html (http://cdn.phys.org/newman/gfx/news/2015/1-newexoplanet.jpg) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2910739/The-telescopes-new-Earth-Planet-hunting-project-starts-automatically-scanning-skies-exoplanets.html (http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/01/14/24B46B9900000578-0-image-a-9_1421277379396.jpg) The Next-Generation Transit Survey is made up of an array of twelve 20cm telescopes, and will focus on discovering Neptune-sized and smaller planets, with diameters two and eight times that of Earth.
