100 Hours of Astronomy--2 labs, 50 points










April 2 to 5 is the target date for 100 hours of Astronomy. On Friday, you can take a look at telescopes around the world in a live skycast

On Sunday, you can celebrate National Sun Day. Complete the activity How Big is the Sun? Hand in the calculation sheet and your answers to the question.

And for our part in the celebration, you will be observing the moon twice in the next week, and filling out and handing in the sheet found here. I realize the activity suggests a 15x telescope, but you can complete using a pair of binoculars, or borrow a telescope from me. Hand in the pdf print page.

Both are due by tax day, April 16.
