Cold Spotz Proposal

This page will be used to assemble the pieces for the proposal we are writing. See 2012 proposal instructions for, well, instructions!

Project #1: Build your Planck model: The paper parts for a Planck model can be found at [1]. Kat's model (the one on the right above) actually has the reflection of the focal plane in the mirror the correct way up.

Project #2: Launch costs: What is the relationship between launch cost and satellite size is. Does it cost more to go where Planck is, or to go where television satellites are, or to go where the international space station is?

Project #3: One Jansky is the flux density you receive if you hold a 60W light bulb at what distance?
