Lesson 1 Lab: The Nebraska
Astronomy Applet Project (NAAP) Basic Coordinates and Seasons
Lesson 1 Lab: NAAP Basic
Coordinates and Seasons covers three different, but
related areas. Terrestrial coordinates and the celestial equatorial coordinate
system are covered and are used to explore the motion of the sun and how it
relates to seasons. This lab is aimed at increasing an understanding of
Longitude and Latitude, the Celestial Equatorial Coordinate System, the
ecliptic and how it relates to seasons.
Getting started with Lesson 1 Lab: NAAP Basic Coordinates and Seasons:
·
First, select the following link and
work through the Main Content sections of Terrestrial Coordinates, Celestial
Equatorial Coordinates and Seasons and the Ecliptic at:
o Basic Coordinates and Seasons Lab
Next, open the following links and
familiarize yourself with the capabilities of the Seasons and Ecliptic
Simulator through experimentation.
o Seasons and Ecliptic Simulator
After familiarizing yourself with the
simulator interactives, follow instructions and answer the questions in the lab
sheet listed below as a PDF or WORD format.
Note: The Lab Simulators require Flash Player which is integrated into Windows
10 and work best with Internet Explorer (IE). To avoid technical issues IE is
recommended for running the simulations. If you try another browser you will
need to set up flash player options for that browser yourself. For example, if
you are using Chrome, go to the upper left of the URL browser entry, select
"Not Secure" then select "Allow" to give Chrome permission
to open the simulator.
