Question 3: You are an astronomer and are searching for planets in other stellar systems for which conditions on the surface of the planets are similar to the Earth. You have identified a candidate star, Tycho1601 that you know has same size to the Sun but 1.4 times the surface temperature of the Sun (our Sun). Around that star there are four planets rotating around it. You are about to invest valuable telescope time in studying the individual planets which one you start with?

Which planet should I start with? USE IMAGE AS REFERNCE
Question 3: You are an astronomer and are searching for planets in other stellar systems
for which conditions on the surface of the planets are similar to the Earth. You have identified
a candidate star, Tycho1601 that you know has same size to the Sun but 1.4 times the surface
temperature of the Sun (our Sun). Around that star there are four planets rotating around it.
You are about to invest valuable telescope time in studying the individual planets which one
you start with?
A) Planet TychoA located at a distance that is half the distance between our Earth and our
Sun.
B) Planet TychoB located at a distance that is equal to the distance between our Earth and our
Sun.
C) Planet TychoC located at a distance that is double the distance between our Earth and our
Sun.
D) Planet TychoD located at a distance that is ten times the distance between our Earth and
our Sun.
