     Extractions: A team of master teachers, university faculty, and NASA researchers have created a series of web-based astronomy and astrobiology lessons for the CERES Project. These classroom-ready activities for K-12 students represent a robust combination of contemporary teaching/learning strategies from the National Science Education Standards (NRC, 1996), exciting and current NASA science data, and Internet pointers to an endless supply of accurate and timely resources. Students explore NASA data to construct first-hand knowledge about the astronomical universe. These internet-based lessons require 1 to 4 class hours and are tied explicitly to the NRC National Science Education Standards astronomy objectives. They can be used as an introduction to astronomy topics, as an intermediate activity, or as an extension activity that requires active participation by students. Students explore interdisciplinary science topics within the context of astrobiology to construct first-hand knowledge about the origin, distribution, and future of life on Earth and beyond. These internet-based lessons require 1 to 4 class hours and are closely tied to the NRC National Science Education Standards and the Principles and Standards for Mathematics. These lessons can be used as stand alone activities or as supplemental materials for standard math and science courses. Many of these activities are suitable for both middle and high school students, even though they may be cited as being appropriate for one group or another.

Home Page of Peggy E. Schweiger Astronomy: 1. DETERMINE THE MOON'S SIDEREAL MONTH AND ITS SYNODIC MONTH: Observing the phases of the moon-observe the moon every few days as it progresses from new moon to full moon and then one more time near the time of the next new moon. Collect the following data: a) find the position of the moon with respect to nearby stars. Plot this position on a start chart, b) estimate the angle between the sun and the moon by estimating the angle between the moon and the sunset point and adding 15 degrees for each hour since sun set, and c) make a drawing of the moon corresponding to each of your observation dates, accurately drawing its appearance. 2. DIURNAL MOTION OF THE SUN: At intervals during the day, mark the point on cardboard where the shadow of the sun falls from a gnomon. Begin observations before noon and make at least one observation per hour, with observations every fifteen minutes when the sun is near its maximum altitude. Find the altitude of the sun at each observation time. Estimate the direcion of true north on your paper. Measure the azimuth of the sun at each observation. Calculate the maximum altitude of the sun and at what time this occured. 3. DIAMETER OF THE SUN: Use a reflected image of the sun to produce an image of the sun. Knowing the geometry of your setup and the distance to the sun, you can calculate its diameter.

     Extractions: (englisch) In recent years backyard radio astronomy has attracted an increasing number of people (radio amateurs and amateur astronomers alike) who have great fun in space exploration by radio. Strong signals are emitted by our sun and the giant planet jupiter. But even sources which are so distant that an optical amateur telescope will barely show them are within the range of amateur radio observatories. You want to know how and when to listen to jupiters radio noise storms? You ask for the current status of solar activity? You wish to buy off-the-shelf components for building your own amateur radio telescope? This page is intended to provide you with some interesting links! General information and project overviews provided by clubs and individuals The Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers (SARA) introduces the work of SARA and briefly overviews amateur radio astronomy projects. You will also find useful references for further reading and the text of SARA newsletters released in 1993 and 1994. The Woodbury Research Project MIT Haystack Observatory , Westford, Massachusetts, has a ''Small Telecope Project'' also described in the August 1996 issue of Sky and Telescope . A satellite dish was used for an 1420 MHz all-sky survey. Taunton Radio Astronomy Observatory Home Page (Trevor Hill, U.K.), offers a description of a 151 MHz amateur radio telescope. They observed the great comet chrash in 1994 with a 20.4 MHz phase switched interferometer. These data can be downloaded. Further results were observed with a 1420 MHz interferometer made of two 2.4 m dishes.
