1. What made the Big Bang "bang?" In other words, why didn't the universe just stay in a tiny little sphere the size of a golfball? More details = more points.
2. What do you think would happen if you went into a black hole? Scientists only know what happens until you get to the event horizon. Anything beyond that is really just an educated guess. More details = more points.
3. Tell me what you think about worm holes? When you pass through one, where do you go? WHEN do you go? More details = more points.

Webquest and Hubble's Law Lab
Webquest
Today you will complete the Ch. 25 Webquest. If you complete the Broncos Version, you may earn up to 100%. If you complete the Cavaliers version, you may earn up to 110%. Both webquests ask the same # of questions and require the same amount of work. I encourage you to check them both out before deciding which one to do.
