<p>^Agreed. 10 char</p>
<p>Gratz on member status, noobie :P</p>
<p>i chose embarrassing mistake too. the passage never talked about microscope size being a factor in clarity. it just said that other things can be mistaken for meteorite impacts, including airplanes lights/flying over.</p>
<p>also, what did you guys get for the question where the answer choices were transient phenomenon and micrometeorite? I chose micrometeorite but at this point i can’t recall if it asked what he saw or what caused/was the event that occurred. Transient phenomena are flashes of light on the moon, so if it asks what he saw I got it wrong, but iff it asks what caused it then micrometeorite was probably correct, but the ACT is a big blur for me right now lol</p>
<p>i think it was like what category does the event fall under. I put transient phenomena.</p>
<p>Were these the only hard questions to discuss? Everything else was good?</p>
<p>^yes, the author made mention that it was transient phenomena.</p>
<p>Did you notice that this test had more answers that were word for word in the text?</p>
<p>ok I never post on CC, but I was wondering… in the moon passage, what was the answer to the question being like what was B’s claim (that a meteorite caused the flash on the moon) based on…the answers were the amateur moon magazine, the other magazine which B posted her findings in, photographs taken by the college student J worked with, and photos taken by B on the apollo mission</p>
<p>do you guys remember this question?</p>
<p>Yes it was based on the word that started with a “P” I forget the word though.</p>
<p>was the word the magazine B posted her findings in? or something else</p>
<p>I forget, do you remember some key words from the essay? I can google it and try to find it.</p>
<p>[A</a> Flash From the Past: New Evidence Supports Moon Blast - New York Times](<a href=“A Flash From the Past: New Evidence Supports Moon Blast - The New York Times”>A Flash From the Past: New Evidence Supports Moon Blast - The New York Times)</p>
<p>^thanks.</p>
<p>I put clementine.</p>
<p>Does anybody know if the other passages can be found online?</p>
<p>ok I think the answers definitely weren’t the pictures the college student took in college and the pictures from the apollo mission…neither of those things were related to the moon flash</p>
<p>so that left me with the two magazine choices…and I thought the amateur magazine didnt fit because her claim wasn’t <em>based</em> on it, the flash was just brought to her attention by it</p>
<p>so I picked the mag B put her findings in (think it started with an A)…because that’s the proof of her claim that the flash really happened</p>
<p>wait…was clementine even one of the answer choices??</p>
<p>^yeah it definitely was. </p>
<p>“In the Clementine photos, Dr. Buratti and Mr. Johnson found one small crater that was ‘‘very, very blue and fresh appearing,’’ Dr. Buratti said. It also happened to be in the exact center of the area they were looking. And it was the proper size – slightly less than a mile across, including the ejecta blanket. Dr. Buratti estimated the size of the asteroid at 20 yards in diameter.”</p>
<p>A consolidated list anyone? It would be much appreciated :P</p>
<p>aargh this is so frustrating because I usually remember every reading question pretty clearly…I’m worried now that what I’m calling the “apollo mission photos” were actually the clementine photos</p>
<p>or I could be right in saying in that B published the “clementine photos” in the Icarus magazine…and I distinctly remember the answer I picked being about that mag</p>
<p>^Im not sure. But I know I went with Clementine.</p>
<p>“These photos were inconclusive, so they turned to the huge database of two million images from Clementine. Many of these photographs were taken with color filters, which can help in determining the age of a surface feature.”</p>
<p>it seems that CLEMENTINE is some sort of ASTRONOMY DATABASE?</p>
