💚 Are the constellations (group of stars, dots) the same or different on each section of the artifact?

Setting up Our Investigation:

During today’s investigation, we will be tracking our constellation every 6 hours to see when it is visible in the sky. We’ll focus on one group of stars, the constellation Pegasus.

DATA COLLECTION DIRECTIONS

  1. For each time, decide if the constellation is visible.

  2. Look at the System View and notice the position of the observer on Earth. Pick and record the image option that matches from the next page (Image A, B, C or D).
