Day 8

On Sunday we woke to a beautiful morning in the mountains, had a quick breakfast of oatmeal, bananas, bagels, and fruit bars, and headed back to Laramie. The majority of Sunday's curriculum centered on learning how to use the spectra taken at our big telescope to characterize the physical properties of our chosen stars. We capped off the day by exploring how to design a spacecraft that could transport a human colony to another star system.
