3
3. What are constellations, what are some of their names 4. Has Polaris always been the North Star? Why or why not? 5. Black holes can be relatively large or small, how many Earth’s can a black hole consume? 6. Are constellations only made up of stars? 7. What is the difference between a star and a galaxy? 1.Name one thing from Power’s of Ten that had the biggest impact on you 2.How does the video show how the micro world relates to the macro world (Remember: Micro-need microscope; Macro: large)

1.Name one thing from Power’s of Ten that had the biggest impact on you (your own personal opinion) 2.How does the video show how the micro world relates to the macro world (it shows how everything works together to make up the world/universe in which we live. Similarities exist between micro and macro)

3. What are constellations, what are some of their names A grouping of stars which have been noted to make a pattern Leo Virgo Ursa Major (Big Dipper/Big Bear) Ursa Minor (Little Dipper/Little Bear) Orion Draco 4. Has Polaris always been the North Star? Why or why not? No, due to the Earth’s wobble it changes, earlier it was Thuban. Changes once every 26,000 years 5. Black holes can be relatively large or small, how many Earth’s can a black hole consume? Some have been noted to consume 10 Earth’s an hour 6. Are constellations only made up of stars? Nope some can be made up of galaxies as well 7. What is the difference between a star and a galaxy? Galaxies can contain billions of stars

4/29/14 “Star Charts” Learning Target: What are some observations visible when looking at star charts at different locations around the Earth? (similarities and differences) Before: _____________
7
Star Charts : pictures taken from Earth looking out at the stars in the local sky This star chart was taken in the northern hemisphere
8
Today we will have a quick discussion and you will look at some star charts at your lab stations At your lab stations are star charts from Portland, Oregon taken each month of the year Note any changes you see as you look at each month’s chart Document similarities and differences you see between each month in your notebook Be ready to discuss your observations you will be called on at random so be sure each person has written down their observations
9
All the charts are taken at relatively the same time but are at different locations around the globe Look carefully at each of the names of the constellations shown Look at the locations of each of the constellations shown
10
Seattle Ursa Major Uras Minor Cygnus Cassiopeia Gemini Perseus Andromeda Pegasus Orion Cetus
11
LA Ursa Major Uras Minor Cygnus Cassiopeia Gemini Perseus Andromeda Pegasus Orion Cetus
12
Sydney Andromeda Cygnus Aquila Cetus Piscis Austrinus Sagittarius Grus Scorpius Eridanus Ara Hyrus
13
In your notebook write down the locations and the major constellations you see When you have written down each of the constellations note their locations Finally discuss any similarities and differences between the three locations
14
1. At the very beginning when we discussed star charts I told you that the example was from the northern hemisphere. How did I know that? 2. You have seen that positions of stars change in the sky during the night and from season to season. Why do you think this occurs? You can answer in written format or draw a diagram.
