Leo

Andrew P. Woolley, Parkland College

Abstract

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
