My capstone was to observe exoplanet transits. A transit is when a planet orbiting another star passes in front of its star from our view on Earth, blocking a small portion of the star’s light. This change in the target star’s brightness is detected by measuring the brightness of the star over time and subsequently graphing it to obtain a light curve..

His little telescope was poorer than even a cheap modern amateur telescope, but what he observed in the heavens rocked the very foundations of Aristotle's universe and the theological-philosophical worldview that it supported. It is said that what Galileo saw was so disturbing for some officials of the Church that they refused to even look through his telescope; they reasoned that the Devil was capable of making anything appear in the telescope, so it was best not to look through it.
