UF,
s In 2014, astronomers discovered 22 new KBOS, among those the following three: 2014
with a period of 331.1 years; 2014 TT, with a period of 280.8 years; 2014 QM
with a period of 315.2 years. Given that information and knowing that Neptune's period is
85
441
164.8 years, which of those objects - if any- are likely part of the Plutino family of KBOS?

In a globular cluster, astronomers (someday) discover a star with the same mass as our Sun, but consisting entirely of hydrogen and helium. Is this star a good place to point our SETI antennas and search for radio signals from an advanced civilization? Group of answer choices No, because such a star (and any planets around it) would not have the heavier elements (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc.) that we believe are necessary to start life as we know it. Yes, because globular clusters are among the closest star clusters to us, so that they would be easy to search for radio signals. Yes, because we have already found radio signals from another civilization living near a star in a globular cluster. No, because such a star would most likely not have a stable (main-sequence) stage that is long enough for a technological civilization to develop. Yes, because such a star is probably old and a technological civilization will have had a long time to evolve and develop there.

The planet Uranus was discovered in 1781, and Neptune, the next planet outward from the Sun, was discovered in 1846. Imagine you're an astronomer in 1846, and you start wondering if there's another planet out beyond Neptune. You decide to try and discover its existence using the same method that was used for Neptune. How will you do this? Group of answer choices You'll recruit a large number of astronomers to use their telescopes to carefully scan the sky in directions that are far from the ecliptic. The regions around the north and south celestial poles will probably be the best "hunting grounds" for the new planet. You'll examine Uranus and Neptune very carefully, on every clear night, for several years, to see if you can find any evidence that sunlight has been reflected off of the `new' planet, then off of Uranus or Neptune, before arriving on Earth. On rare occasions when Neptune passes in front of the Sun, as seen from Earth, you'll look carefully at the Sun (with a safe…
