Im seriously going mad.
Astro competition in 3 days time, the project has not even been started (at least we're getting somewhere, we've decided on landing on neptune), and i desperately need to revise the notes.
Stars, constellations, planets and who and when discovered, asteroids, moons, deep sky objects, not to mention telescopes, stellar evolution, the dates supernovas were observed (earliest is the crab nebula observed by Chinese in 1054, also designated as M1. + the various books and dates they were written by famous astronomers and physicists and theories and laws they proposed. From the heliocentric model (by Nicholaus Copernicus, mentioned in De revolutionibus orbium coelestium) to general relativity (Albert Einstein) to the 3 laws of motion (Isaac Newton, in Principia) ..... and astronomical figures (Light years, distance from central earth to cetral sun, parsecs...)
Oh yes, and how could i forget the proton-proton chain, the much faster CNO cycle, and the triple-alpha process, the formula for f-ratio, light gathering power and magnification.
How can i not go mad?
