Objective:

Using library resources, briefly describe how scientists gather data about the universe by completing the table and answering the question based on your findings.

Using Grolier's Multimedia Encyclopedia online,Grolier's Databases search for each of the technological developments (telescope, spectral analysis, red/blue shift, satellites/space craft).

Using the handout, record your findings in each of the appropriate boxes - remember to read the article and then put the information into your own words! (Note:  You may need more than 1 page for your table.  Try to keep your answers concise and to the point.)
