Beyond the Solar System Part V

Area of Focus: Beyond our Solar System

New Area of Focus: Constellations

Big Dipper (Ursa Major)

North Star

What is this a picture of?

The North Star was an important navigational beacon for slaves escaping north in the underground railroad.

Constellations can be images that are associated with groups of stars. They help us tell which stars are which. They also help break the sky into sections to help us remember. Early farmers may have used them to help determine times for planting. Visit http://www.google.com/sky/

Activity! (Optional) Making a Constellation. Eye Protection Required. Each student gets a 35 mm film canister. Use push pin to create holes on bottom of canister to recreate your constellation. http://www.google.com/sky/ Use masking tape to label the outside of your canister with your constellation. Students should create four circles in notebook to sketch some of your peers work. Use a flashlight, dark room, and ceiling to show your constellations. Templates can be found at… http://space.about.com/library/graphics/constellation_patterns.jpg

A light-year is a unit of distance. It is the distance that light can travel in one year. (9,500,000,000,000 kilometers.)

A light-year is a unit of distance. It is the distance that light can travel in one year. (9,500,000,000,000 kilometers.) Light moves at a velocity of about 300,000 kilometers (km) each second.

Light speed put into perspective. In one second light could travel back and fourth from New York to LA 38 times. 38 times a sec.
