Astronomy Project Wiki!

A Race Through Space

By: Britney and Valeria

 

Description of Astronomy Project Wiki

      

     Our Astronomy Project Wiki covers the solar system. From the planets to stars we cover every aspect making up our solar system. We explore basic facts about each planet, their moons, the asteroid belt, small bodies, and stars. With information we collected about each of these we created a comic. With witty remarks and a story line we told about our solar system. We created this wiki to share our story and knowledge about the solar system.

 

Standards Covered

 

4. The structure and composition of the universe can be learned from the study of stars and galaxies, and their evolution.

  1. Galaxies are clusters of billions of stars, and may have different shapes.
  2. The sun is one of many stars in our own Milky Way galaxy. Stars may differ in size, temperature, and color.
  3. How to use astronomical units and light years as measures of distance between the sun, stars, and Earth.
  4. Stars are the source of light for all bright objects in outer space. The moon and planets shine by reflected sunlight, not by their own light.
  5. The appearance, general composition, relative position and size, and motion of objects in the solar system, including planets, planetary satellites, comets, and asteroids.
