Light Year -
Will wrote out the definition and length of a light year. He then determined how far away an imaginary planet is, based on the images of the denizens we're seeing through a powerful telescope. The first planet witnessed the third birthday of a child born in the year 2000. The planet was 94.6 trillion kilometers away. Will figured out that the birthday boy was actually 13 years old at the time. We finished several similar light-year calculations to help illustrate how what we see is dependent on light waves.
