Additional Info

For your homework this week, please spend 40 minutes summarising everything we have looked at so far (Fusion, life cycle of a star and HR diagrams) and researching a star. This information can be found in: "Homework - revision poster". Please insert your document here as a "Printout".

You can do this on paper, on OneNote, using a PowerPoint or any other method - as long as it has the important information summarised and is pleasing to look at (add some pictures and colour etc - but not at the expense of the important information).

Finally, I would like you to research one star from the Orion constellation (which becomes evermore visible as winter draws in - images of this with labels for each star are in the OneNote page)), and talk about the life cycle of said star at the bottom of your poster - where it is currently, how it developed and how it is going to end. Add some interesting information about the star you choose.


As always, any issues or questions then please let me know.
