Essay

Refer to the figure.

-You are one of a team of scientists studying a newly-discovered planet. You are receiving data from a probe that was landed on the planet by an unmanned mission. Your team is working with the little data you have from the probe to learn as much as you can about the planet's basic characteristics. The figure illustrates data collected by the probe at the same location on the planet during what you suspect are two different seasons (season A and season B). Based on what you have inferred from the data in the figure, sketch a new figure of the hypothetical orbit of this planet around its sun. Sketch the planet at four different positions during its orbit around its sun (at 12:00, 3:00, 6:00, and 9:00, relative to the sun). Label the seasons (A or B) at each of these four locations.
