Astronomy

2. Type of Telescope that is used to study the radio waves traveling through space.
4. Telescopes/other instruments that are launched into space to collect data on distant planets, galaxies and celestial bodies. Example - The Hubble Space Telescope
5. All of the matter and energy are in what?
8. An object that orbits the Earth
9. An object with a terrestrial/rocky or gaseous surface that orbits the sun.
12. Sun, A star in the Milky Way galaxy that is in the center of the Solar System and is located in "the goldilocks zone".
13. Orbit around the nearest planet and may have craters/special features.
15. Occurs when an object in space passes directly between two other objects or between the object and the viewer.
16. Type of Telescope that uses curved mirrors and light to produce magnified images of objects out in space.
18. The visible surface of the Sun that emits the light that we see. It is the lowest area of the Sun's atmosphere.
19. A spiral-like galaxy where Earth is located
20. Made up of gas, dust, and billions of stars and have different shapes (elliptical, spiral, irregular)

1. The outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. It emits light, but is visible as a white halo during a solar eclipse.
3. Bright arch-like loops that may erupt from the photosphere into the Corona. They release large amounts of energy into outer space.
4. Occurs when the moon passes directly between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun's light and casting a shadow over a certain area on Earth. This can only occur during a New Moon (No Moon).
6. Type of Telescope that uses convex lenses and to produce magnified images of objects out in space.
7. An instruments launched into space to study planets and environments that are too dangerous for humans.
10. The dark spots of the Sun that appear on the photosphere. They are actually moving areas of magnetic activity with temperatures that are cooler that the area of their location in the photosphere.
11. Are in the belt between Mars and Jupiter and have different shapes.
14. Occurs when Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sun's light. As a result, the Earth's shadow hits the moon and casts a shadow over the moon. Can only occur when it is a Full Moon.
17. Gas and dust remnants that are found from the formation of the universe.
