2 Minutes, 6 Hands, 1 Chance

The video tutorial discusses a solar eclipse experiment, emphasizing the importance of preparation and precision. The team has only two minutes to conduct the experiment, which involves setting up a telescope to observe the eclipse at four different wavelengths. A polarization camera, a first for the solar physics community, will be used to capture images to determine the temperature and flow speed of the corona. The experiment requires precise coordination among team members, each responsible for specific tasks, to ensure success despite the pressure.

What is the main challenge the team faces during the solar eclipse experiment?

• Limited time to conduct the experiment

• Lack of equipment

• Unfavorable weather conditions

• Inexperienced team members

What is unique about the camera being used in the experiment?

• It is the smallest camera ever used in space

• It is a camera that can record sound

• It is the first time a polarization camera is used in solar physics

• It can capture images in 3D

How many different wavelengths will the telescope observe during the eclipse?

• Three

• Two

• Four

• Five

What is the role of the person responsible for the filter wheel during the experiment?

• To give the command to turn the filter wheel

• To adjust the telescope's position

• To monitor the weather conditions

• To record the data manually

What feeling does the team experience as they conduct the experiment?

• Pressure and excitement

• Confusion

• Boredom

• Indifference
