Appreciating Hubble at Hyper-speed: Exercises
The following exercises are designed to take anywhere from 15-45 minutes. For longer lab periods, combine two or more of the individual exercises. The files are provided in both Word and PDF formats for your convenience. A brief instructor guide is also provided.
These exercises are a work in progress. When listed in red, the exercises are down for tinkering. If you have comments or suggestions, please email Lisa Will.
