Q 8.1
You go out tonight and see the brightest star in the constellation Orion just rising
above your eastern horizon at 10 PM. One week later at 10 PM this same star will be.
A. Slightly higher in the sky.
B. At the same height as before.
C. Below your horizon.
D. Setting on your western horizon.

A. Slightly higher in the sky, as sidereal days, or days in relation to stars are
shorter than what is typically conceived as a day, or a solar day.
EM Spectrum of light 2
Which type of light has the longest wavelength?
Give this one a try later!
radio waves
when it is summer, the tilt of the earth causes the sun to be above the horizon for
(many/few) hours of the day, and the sun at noon will be (high/low) in the sky,
providing (direct/indirect) sunlight to that hemisphere of the earth
