| Question | Answer |
| stages of our sun | nebula- lowmass protostar- average star- red giant- white dwarf- black dwarf |
| nebula- lowmass protostar- lowmass star- red giant- ___________ white dwarf- _______ | planetary nebula, black dwarf |
| nebula- highmass protostar- ________-_________-___________ | supergiant, supernova, blackhole |
| what is the significance of the main sequence stars | they are where the stars are born and a lot of stars are still there |
| spiral | milky way... look like spiral |
| elliptical | oval shaped |
| irregular | scattered |
| largest to smallest- universe, planet, star, solar system,galaxy, moon, asteroid | universe, galaxy, solar system,star, planet, asteriod, moon |
| big bang theory | an explosion occured and galexy has been expanding ever since |
| what is the evidence that scientists use to support big bang | red shift |
| what is red shift | em spectrum waves from galexys are red- means they are moving away from us |
| parallax | an apparent shift in location of stars in space depends on ur location |
| radio | determines size and shapeof object as well as distances |
| gamma | the universe emits gamma rays |
| xray | used to study gases in space as well as the suns cornea |
| ultraviolet | take photos of young stars and galaxy shapes |
| visible | em spectra data- tells us what stars are made of |
| infrared | passes through space dust- lets us see farther |
| microwave | gives clues about universes origin and helps identidy galaxy shapes |
| apparent magnitude | how bright stars look to us |
| absolute magnitude | the real luminosity |
| what two properties keep objects in orbit | gravity and inertia |
| large group of gas, dust, and stars held together by gravity | galaxy |
| peices of rock larger than the moon. most orbit between mars and jupiter | asteriod |
| area of very strong gravity that allows not even light to excape | black hole |
| made of ice, dust, rock, orbits the sun, has a tail | comet |
| chunk of rock that has hit the earths surface | meteorite |
| peice of rock or debris falling through the earths atmostphere | meteor (shower) |
| the combining of hydrogen to form helium. this is how the sun recieves its energy. | nucleur fusion |
| distance light travels in one year | light year |
| large cloud of dust and gas where new stars are born | nebula |
