Our (SG and I) task list was typed up and sent to TL, and I created this page that you all are now reading.

1. Review [My]Powerpoint 2. Review NOAO website (list of links) 3. Annotated Bibliography -Say stuff about each link -Post this information to Wikispaces 5. Observation -Schedule observation time with a Graduate student at ND 6. Establish contact with Joe Ribaudo -Ask you for this information -Introduce ourselves/what want to accomplish 7. Research -Find other asteroid resources, annotate them
 * Task List:**

After starting this page up, I reviewed my old Powerpoint for asteroids and looked at some of the project ideas on the NOAO website as well, and will continue to look at that tomorrow.

Today I read over my question in my LIGO, and attempted to answer it before being broken up by a lecture on grades in our class. After the lecture in the litle time we had remaining, I looked over the [|NOAO] webpage to see what other students are doing on this project. I skimmed through the entire site, looking at the introduction to asteroids and some project descriptions. I then talked with SG and TL about the formatting of our groups annotated bibliography on the site. I'll continue that tomorrow.

During the course of the day I proceeded to meet with SG and we both found two good websites that we can annotate, and we both began to do so. I put up a bit of a brief annotatino of the home page, and I suggest everyone check it out on the Asteroids home page! It will be completed soon, but it will probably be a long and drawn out project. SG is doing a NASA site while I am annotating an NOAO site. This will easily take up the remainder of the week, possibly even the next week.

Today TL and SG were not in class, so I was left on my own to reveiew the aforementioend NOAO site and I looked at my previously mentioned powerpoint project too. I looked over what Albedo was and how it will be used in our project, because SG and I both agree it will be a big part. I will be adding this in my annotation.

Today I continued my work on my annotated bibliography of the NOAO site and put all of my work on the wikispace under the asteroids page. I also looked at the website promoting the new comet in the area that is 1 million times brighter than usual, and talked with TL about possibly using that as part of our (SG and I's) project.
