Okay, if I haven't blogged about this yet, but my astronomy teacher has been frustrated with us last class since it seemed that we didn't read at all, or we just didn't read enough. He threatened us that we will be kicked out of astronomy, and taken points off. (Explain that later.)
After today's class, he was extremely "proud" of what we had done this time. We had a lot of good information, but the only problem was that we never related our information to our everyday tasks and lives. He led from that topic to our assignment.
"You are to research an animal."
What do animals have anything to do with astronomy? I thought.
"But you are to research their eyesight. Their vision. Give full research of their vision, eye structure and composition, and the difference and likeness with human eyes."
I chose to do a bat. But... it's very hard to find something about their vision. It's always like Bats are blind! or They use echolocation in place of sight.... and such. URGH! So, I switched to butterflies! Butterflies are interesting. They sense not colors, but polarized and ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light is beyond our sight in the visible spectrum, so we only see up to red and purple and black.
If you have any information or websites that could help me, leave a comment!
Thanks! All information is appreciated!!! :)
