The Event Supervisor will provide any unlabeled charts needed for the test.PPala01 wrote:Can anyone tell me if we need to bring our own charts for the RFS event. Like the charts, as in Sc001t or the Sc003t. I just don't wanna turn up on test day and figure that I didn't need to make my cheat sheet full of charts or I did need to bring a chart.

Re: Reach for the Stars B
What are your favorite constellations? And why? Mine is Canis Major because it has Sirius and VY Canis Majoris, the brightest star in the night sky and largest star known.

Re: Reach for the Stars B
Hey, if you can fit a labeled chart in your notes it is legal. 2 pages notes in ANY FORM from ANY SOURCE. Your MD Star ES needs to read the rules.rishj09 wrote:Are any states allowing star charts......

Re: Reach for the Stars B
I've done this event for invite and Regional comp. My notes were horrible, because I didn't want to be in this event, and I was busy with other events. My school is going to state (for the 6th consecutive year ) in 6 weeks and I need better notes. Does anyone know what I should include in my notes? I've competed, but I'm still lost.

Re: Reach for the Stars B
Anything you don't know. A map of the constellations is always a good idea; they tend to use Rey's Constellations, from what I've seen. You should have multiple pictures of all the DSOs, make sure that you have some thermal imaging and x-ray pictures. For the notes, it might be good to just make a chart for the stars, with the magnitudes (absolute AND apparent), luminosity, temperature, constellation, etc.
