 For this assignment, you have to make at least two observations on two different days.
You will have to observe astronomical objects (the moon, planets and/or some constellations).

You will have to measure the angular extension of one object (the moon or a constellation).
And you will have to measure the angular distance from the horizon of two objects (the moon, a planet, some star your choice).

Then you will combine the log for all those observations and submit them as one single text submission. 

 

Measuring angles: Helpful resources

Please make sure you don’t confuse angular size (angular extension) with angular distance from the horizon.

If you have trouble identifying stars, planets and constellations, you can use different apps. One of the apps I use on my phone is called skyview lite.

If you’d like to know more about constellations in the northern hemisphere, you can check out this website.
