Row 1, Col 1 MILKY WAY What galaxy is our solar system in? 1,2 14-15 BILLION YEARS How old is the universe? 1,3 three How many Laws of Planetary motion did Johannes Kepler have? 1,4 JUPITER Which planet is the biggest? 2,1 Spiral – spiral shaped, Elliptical – flattened circle, Irregular – blob-like (no shape) Name and describe the three types of galaxies. 2,2 SPIRAL, ELLIPTICAL, IRREGULAR Name the three main types of galaxies. 2,3 EXPANDING Scientists think that our universe is ____________ based on The Red Shift. 2,4 METHANE GAS Why is Neptune blue? 3,1 RED Stars are found in galaxies. What color are stars that are old and have low temperatures? 3,2 STAR, CONSTELLATION, GALAXY, CLUSTER, UNIVERSE Arrange in order, smallest to largest: constellation, star, universe, galaxy, cluster 3,3 Theory that states the universe began with a massive expansion (NOT explosion). What is the Big Bang Theory? 3,4 MARS Which planet has a tall mountain on it named Olympus Mons? 4,1 The sun is a medium star so fusion will eventually stop and it will begin to expand as a red giant. The outside planetary nebula will drift away and what remains is a white dwarf that will ultimately die out. The sun is the only star in our solar system. How is our lone star going to die? 4,2 HYDROGEN IS CONVERTED INTO HELIUM IN THE CORE OF THE STAR Explain the chemistry behind nuclear fusion. 4,3 If the color that stars/galaxies produce shows up in the red portion of the spectrum, the star/galaxy is moving away from us because the wavelength is getting longer. Explain the concept of RED SHIFT. 4,4 ALL OF THE GAS GIANTS (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) Which planet(s) have/has rings? Name them 5,1 ANDROMEDA What is the name of our nearest neighboring galaxy? 5,2 A LARGE STAR EXPLODES AS A SUPERNOVA AND FORMS EITHER A BLACK HOLE OR A NEUTRON STAR (PULSAR) When large stars die, what happens to them? What are the end results of a supernova explosion? 5,3 The closer the foci the more circular the orbit. Farther apart and the orbit is more elliptical. Kepler used his law of ellipses to describe the path planets take around the sun. How do the focal points tell you the shape of the orbits? 5,4
