Space Science Review Vocabulary: Nebula Proto Star Main Sequence Star Red Giant White Dwarf Black Dwarf Super Giant Supernova Neutron Star Black Hole Galaxies Red Shift Blue Shift Edwin Hubble Star Spectrum Nuclear Fusion Nucleosynthesis Big Bang Theory Steady State Theory EM Spectrum Visible Light Spectrum HR Diagram Absolute Magnitude Apparent Magnitude Big Questions to Understand: How mass affects equilibrium? How do pressure and gravity change throughout the life of a star? How gravity and pressure affect equilibrium in a main sequence star? Characteristics of the phases in the Life Cycle of a Star The EM Spectrum The HR Diagram – know how to relate temperature to luminosity or absolute magnitude on the diagram What kinds of information does a star’s spectrum tell us? What happens when light excites electrons – how is what we see as color produced or created? IPC Relate frequency to wavelength in the visible light spectrum – 8th Science Explain the complexity in the parts, purpose, complexity demo for the supernova? Explain how the balloon demo we did in class models the Big Bang Theory – 8th Science Explain how red shift, cosmic background microwave radiation, and nucleosynthesis supports the Big Bang Theory. Explain why there is NO center of the universe.
