sick kid = research

I had a full day hiding at home and working; I spent it on my Atlas. I got multi-galaxy plates close to fully working and worked on the automatic caption generation. On the multi-galaxy plate issue, one problem is deciding how big to make each image: Galaxies scaled to the same half-light or 90-percent radius look very different when presented at the same exposure time, brightness, and contrast (stretch). One of the points of my Atlas is to present everything in a quantitatively comparable way, so this is a highly relevant issue.
