In this course you will be performing photometric measurements on observations of a Gaia supernova target, taken with the Faulkes Telescopes.
This course gives you the opportunity to use data from various type Ia supernovae in order to calculate how quickly the Universe is expanding and how old it is.
This activity provides you with all the materials you need to perform photometric measurements of a Gaia supernova target. You can use your own observations from the Faulkes Telescopes to produce a light curve of your supernova
