Asteroids shine due to the Sun's light reflecting Search off their surface, and their brightness might vary due to one or more of the following factors: The asteroid's distance to us is changing (closer objects appear brighter). The asteroid's phase, just like the Moon's, is changing as it orbits around the Sun (the larger the area of the asteroid that is illuminated, as seen from Earth, the brighter it will appear). The asteroid, because of its irregular shape, reflects light differently as it spins. If the orbit of an asteroid is well known, the first two effects can be numerically calculated and their contributions removed from the measured light curve. We are then left with a light curve whose changes are due solely to the spinning of the asteroid. For this portion of the activity, you will simulate how astronomers determine the size and shape of asteroids by interpreting their light curves. Provided in the following questions are a variety of light curve videos. After watching the video, determine which light curve matches the accompanying asteroid in the video.
