HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE - Continuing to collect World Class Science DAILY REPORT    #4660 PERIOD COVERED: 5am July 24 - 5am July 25, 2008 (DOY 206/0900z-207/0900z) OBSERVATIONS SCHEDULED FGS 11212 Filling the Period Gap for Massive Binaries The current census of binaries among the massive O-type stars is seriously incomplete for systems in the period range from years to millennia because the radial velocity variations are too small and the angular separations too close for easy detection. Here we ...Continue Reading
