Naked Eye Project Ideas
If your schedule does not allow you to attend UNM's Campus Observatory open nights, then you can make observations without the aid of a telescope from another location. You can choose from the following list of tasks (note that Observing Projects 2 and 3 add up to 200 points so you must do two of these tasks if you are not going to the Observatory):
- Position of Setting or Rising Sun: 100 points
- Position of Setting or Rising Moon: 100 points
- Phases of Our Moon: 100 points
- Seasonal Changes in Constellations: 100 points
