Topics for Term Papers

Yesterday Jane reminded us that we have to write a five page term paper on Topics to be posted in this blog.

Here is a list:

1. Life in the Universe
2. Origin of the Solar System
3. Black Holes
4. Earth
5. Laws of Motion
6. Hertzsprung-Russell diagram

I already linked to Wikipedia. Clearly you can also use our textbook, The Essential Cosmic Perspective.

I posted some useful links here.

Apart from these five pages, I expect to see a write-up from each class, i.e., I want to see your class notes.
