This is a simulation, not a quiz. You answer by trying things and watching what happens.

Our question

Can you change star or orbit conditions and explain the habitability or lifecycle effect?

Getting the simulation ready…

  1. 1Change one thing
  2. 2Say what will happen, then run it
  3. 3Finish: say what you found
What counts as evidence
  • Star Life Cycle: predicted what should change before this action: Adjust the mass slider to set initial star mass.
  • Star Life Cycle: tested the mission by doing: Adjust the mass slider to set initial star mass Then Watch the star evolve through phases.
  • Star Life Cycle: explained why this observation matters: Star visualization changes size/color with mass.
  • Star Life Cycle: revised the strategy after comparing expected observations with what changed on screen.
