Orion, Eray Ergenc
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
This poster for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College features the constellation Orion and features information on the composition of the stars, their distances and their mass in relation to each other. Art and its inclusion in Greek mythology are also included.
Taurus, Alex P. Tomaras
Taurus, Alex P. Tomaras
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
The constellation Taurus is featured in this poster for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College. Work to complete this project included calculating a ear's time by looking at the stars and their movement, plotting a graph with the azimuth and altitude, and determining the life span of the constellations stars.
Leo, Andrew P. Woolley
Leo, Andrew P. Woolley
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
The purpose of this project was to understand how information is gathered about stars, constellations, and galaxies, specifically the constellation Leo. Information gathered for this project includes how a star's position can be used to calculate the length of the year and how the mass and spectral type of a specific star can show when the star will die. This is a project for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College
