Use Cases The sky Stars Galaxies The Pleiades open cluster Confirmation of a supernova Proper motion of the Barnard Star - NEW - Distance to Andromeda galaxy - NEW - Distance to the Crab Nebula - NEW - Giulia Iafrate - 22 sep 2009

Use Cases The library is growing, thanks also to Florian Freistetter (ARI-Heidelberg) and suggestions from high-school teachers Most have been tested in schools last year, now we will test the new use cases in few months We will perform some use cases for university students Giulia Iafrate - 22 sep 2009

Use Cases Use cases have been improved with a little introduction (few slides) and the “the astronomer opinion” Giulia Iafrate - 22 sep 2009
