Venus 2004 Transit website and projects from: Udo Backhaus, Erhard Hoerber We have just slightly updated our project site http://didaktik.physik.uni-essen.de/~backhaus/VenusProject.htm You can find there six projects for preparation. Most of the related pages are up to now empty but they will be filled in the near future. The preparation projects are related to Project 1: Measuring the radius of Venus' orbit Project 2: Determing of the own geographical coordinates and the projected distance of different observers Project 3: Determing the radius of the Earth Project 4: Measuring the angular radius of the Sun Project 5: Exercises in photographing the Sun and exact position measurements on the Sun's disc (Sunspots) Project 6: The Transit of Mercury on May 7th, 2003 With our best regards |
