  8. Assignment: “Construct” Scale Model of the Solar System • Sun is a basketball. • Place basketball in front of Mike the Tiger’s habitat. • Walk to Earth’s distance, turn around and take a picture of the basketball (sun). • Walk to Jupiter’s distance, take picture of sun. • Walk to Neptune’s distance, take picture of sun. • Assemble all images, along with explanations, into a PDF document. • How far away is our nearest neighbor basketball? Due via e-mail (tohline@lsu.edu): By 11:30 am, 25 January (Friday) You may work in a group containing no more than 5 individuals, all of whom must be students in this class.
