REACH FOR THE STARS, Division B

DESCRIPTION: Students will demonstrate an understanding of the properties and Evolution of stars and their observation with different portions of the electromagnetic Spectrum: Radio, Infrared, Visible, Ultraviolet, X-Ray and Gamma Ray.

Part I: Constellation, Star, and Deep Sky Object (DSO) Identification Part II: i: Stellar Evolution stellar nurseries, protostars, main sequence stars, red giants, planetary nebulas, white dwarfs, red supergiants, type Ia supernovas, Type II supernovas, neutron stars black holes

ii: Spectral Classification of Stars spectra and the H-R diagram

iii: The Electromagnetic Spectrum multiwavelength observations

iv: Stellar Temperatures, Radii, and Luminosities the H-R diagram, blackbody radiation

Part I: Constellations, Stars, and DSO’s
