  4. The distance from the Sun to a distant star is measured in this. A 100

  5. What is a light year? A100

  6. Distances in space are measured in light years because of this. A200

  7. What is distances in space are so great that a large unit is needed. A 200

  8. This distance is most different in size from a light year. • Distance across the solar system • Distance across the Milky Way • Distance across a constellation • Distance across the sun A 300

  9. What is the distance across the sun. (D) A 300

  10. You send a space probe one way into space with a range of eight light years. According to the chart this is the farthest star the probe could reach. A 400

  11. What is Star A? A 400

  12. Astronomers thought that galaxies were single stars because of this. A 500

  13. What is they are so far away they look like single stars? A 500

  14. The ancient mariners (sailors) used the North Star for navigation because of this. B 100
