Read MoreFinding Habitable Planets – Activity 4
In this activity, students will learn that stars have different properties, such as temperature, size, and lifespan. They will also learn that stellar properties determine the conditions for planets around them, hence affect which planets might be habitable.
Read MoreDetecting Exoplanets – Activity 3
In this activity, students will first familiarize with the ZOONIVERSE project named “Planet Hunters TESS” and learn how to spot a transiting planet in a star lightcurve. Next, they will inspect a specific lightcurve and derive from it two main planet properties.
