Instructions:
1. Choose the time of day/night you will observe the Moon. Pick a time you can commit to for at
least 14 days.
2. Use a Moon calendar to select the dates you will make your observations. Be sure that the Moon
is visible (that is, risen but not set) during the time you selected in step 1.
3. Find a place to do your observations where the horizon is relatively unobscured toward the south.
Come back to this place each time you do an observation.
4. On a sheet of paper sketch what you see along the southern horizon, extending from west to east.
Draw in a horizontal and vertical scale in 10-degree increments.
5. Beginning on the date you chose in Step 2, do the following things each day for the next 14 days:
a. Measure the altitude and azimuth of the Moon.
b. Record these values in a table along with the date, time, Moon phase, and notes about the
conditions, your impressions, etc.
c. On your sketch, draw the Moon as it appears to you. Be sure to draw it at the correct location
based on its altitude and azimuth. Shade in the maria that you see. Write the date next to your
drawing.
6. Be sure to come back to the same place at the same time (no more than +/- 15 minutes) for
each observation.
7. If you happen to miss an observation, make a note of that in your table. Then try again the
following day. You need to have at least 12 successful observations.
What to turn in:
1. Your sketch showing the changing location and appearance of the Moon (minimum of successful
10 observations, all on the same sketch).
2. Your table with the date, time, altitude, azimuth, and phase of the Moon during your observa-
tions, as well as notes on your observations. Please type your table.
3. The answers to the following analysis questions. Please type your answers.
Analysis questions:
1. How many degrees did the Moon move along the horizon (east/west) each day? Give the mini-
mum and maximum amounts as well as the average.
2. How many degrees did the Moon move vertically (in altitude) each day? Give the minimum and
maximum amounts as well as the average.
3. Explain why the location of the Moon changes in the sky as viewed at the same time over the
course of your observations.
4. What did you learn by completing this project?
5. What was challenging about this project?
Your project is due on the last day of class. No late work will be accepted. (But you can certainly
turn in your work early.)
One final tip: Start your project early! The weather is unpredictable, and you don’t want to
lose points because you couldn’t make enough observations. (Former students say this is the most
important suggestion they would give to future students, and I agree.)

“Standard Operating Procedure for Safe Design in Civil Engineering: Ensuring Compliance with WHS Legislation and Prioritizing Safety in Public Infrastructure Works”
This assessment task requires the development of a Standard Operating Procedure for inclusion of safety in design. You should refer to the examples (Queensland Urban Utilities and Australian Rail Track Corporation ATRC) as a basis for the document you produce.
Assume you are engaged by a civil engineering organisation that undertakes civil engineering and design for public infrastructure works. As part of meeting your obligations under the WHS Act and Regulations 2011 you are required to prepare a safety report and issue this to the client where the client is a Person Conducting A Business or Undertaking (PCBU). The aim of this report is to help prevent possibly future injuries or death by identifying, assessing and eliminating hazards or potential risks at the design stage. You also have a legal obligation to do this under the legislation, specifically regulation 295 of the WHS Regulation 2011. You also have an obligation under section 22 of the WHS Act to provide information on how you have designed the structure to be without risk to health and safety during construction, maintenance, use and demolition to anyone who is issued with a copy of the design. This information can be incorporated into the safe design report required under the WHS Regulation. Your standard operating procedure document must ensure these requirements are met in the designs developed by your organisation. -

“Building a Sustainable and Equitable Economic System on Mars” Ladies and gentlemen of the panel, it is an honor to be here today to discuss the economic principles that should guide the pioneers in building a new society on Mars. As we embark on
The year is 2050 and humans have begun to occupy Mars. You are part of a panel of experts who will advise the pioneers on what economic principles this new society should be founded on in order to achieve the three goals you are tasked with, which include:
1. Access to diverse goods and services in the marketplace
2. Wealth and economic opportunity are spread among the greatest amount of people as possible
3. Innovation, creativity and the entrepreneurial spirit are all fostered
In approximately 1-2 pages and drawing upon lessons learned in this class and When We Are Free, prepare a speech to the panel describing your recommendations for how best to achieve these goals. (Note: I am not seeking your personal opinion; rather, this should be a reflection of the values we’ve learned in this class).
Some topics to consider: overarching economic system (socialism, communism, capitalism, etc.) tax policies, regulatory burdens, system of government, etc.) You are not required to cover each of these topics. Rather, your goal is to make a persuasive argument that shows your understanding of course material.
Supporting your decision with evidence from your readings is worth 15 points of your grade. Please refer to the syllabus for your grading rubric.
Your paper needs to be professionally written, free of grammar and spelling errors, and your original work. Any references should be included in the same way you would in a real speech (I.e. “in the words of Davy Crockett”). A references cited page is not necessary. 12 point font double spaced is preferred.
Your speech is due by Sunday 5/12 at 11:59 p.m.
