  1. The Foundations of Astronomy Ashley Peter

  2. The Universe Redshift http://www.astro.virginia.edu/~jh8h/glossary/redshift.htm

  3. Galaxies http://www.daviddarling.info/images/Whirlpool_Galaxy.jpg http://www.redorbit.com/modules/reflib/article_images/6_4663ec14873a296051bd94e54e498ea8.jpg Spiral- Whirlpool Galaxy Elliptical- NGC 1316 http://gallery.rcopticalsystems.com/gallery/ngc1365_crop.jpg http://www.spacedaily.com/images/galaxy-ese-593-ig-008-desk-1360.jpg Barred Spiral- NGC 1365 Irregular- “The Cosmic Bird”

  4. Planet Formation http://oz.plymouth.edu/~sci_ed/Turski/Courses/Earth_Science/Images/0.Our_solar_system.JPG

  5. Star Formation https://coolwiki.ipac.caltech.edu/index.php/Studying_Young_Stars

  6. Star Clusters Open Cluster- The Jewel Box http://www.spiegelteam.de/Filmaufnahmen/47tuc.jpg Globular Cluster- 47 Tucanae http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/sao/guest/bessell/Jewelbox.jpg

  7. H-R Diagram http://www.aoi.com.au/bcw/Placid/PUF-3-hrdiagram.jpg

  8. Stellar Evolution Here, the pressure out equals the gravity in. Mass determines the evolution http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstudents/9-12/features/stellar_evol_feat_912.html/

  9. Spectral Classification http://zebu.uoregon.edu/%7Eimamura/122/images/MK-sequence.jpg Hotter Class Cooler

  10. Spectroscopy http://astro.unl.edu/naap/hr/hr_background1.html

  11. DSS-7 Spectrograph http://www.sbig.com/dss7/dss7.htm Absorption lines The appearance of a stellar spectrum. Spectra are usually recorded digitally as a graph rather than in bands of light. http://www.astro.washington.edu/users/premap/images/project_images/solar_spectrum.jpg

  12. How a spectrograph works: light Dispersion of light from a diffraction grating http://outreach.atnf.csiro.au/education/senior/astrophysics/spectrographs.html

  13. Type G Class I star from Jacoby Atlas Blue region spectrum of R Sct (TLRBSE program in 2004)

  14. Astrophotography MaxIm DL http://www.sbig.com/sbwhtmls/online.htm ST-7XME CCD Camera http://www.covingtoninnovations.com/dslr/MaxDSLR/index.html#top
