Re: Astronomy C
Does anyone have the period-luminosity relationship for type II cepheids? I can only find type I.

Re: Remote Sensing C
I have been asked several times, including on my Regional test, how many pixels are in this image. I don't have examples of this because it was on a Regional test, but can someone explain how you are supposed to be able to tell? (All the answer choices were low numbers, but I thought there were a lo...

Re: Astronomy C
I'm actually clueless as to which DSO this is... Image 1. What DSO was this data gathered from? 2. Is this image a spectrum, light curve, or radial velocity graph? (meta question to anyone who can answer - what would be a good way to phrase this without listing options?) 3. What orbital phenomenon ...

Re: Astronomy C
A star has three times the mass of the sun, what would its schwarzschild radius be? (Also how do you hide your answer behind an answer box and how do you upload math equations to show work?)
