Most attempted questions
• JNR: 3 attempted Question 9 (What are some of the weirdest stars out there? ); wide variety of questions were attempted generally.• On average, Q9 was not answered well across Junior and Senior. • All but one mentioned HV 2112 : none actually mentioned observable
characteristics other than its membership to an hypothetical class of objects.• Distinguishing teams here had good content management: e.g. mentioned key
characteristics of Przybylski's Star but deferred further discussion of reasons to the live segment
• SNR: Q17 (Why have we not found life outside of Earth?) which met varying degrees of success.• Most did fine, though a few conceptual errors were spotted

JNR General Comments
• Teams generally did okay but lacked the ‘wow’ factor• Some videos were droning; demonstrated little effort for project.
• Please manage your background audio well. • Subtitling helps a LOT
• Fast-forwarding of video means BOTH content and delivery suffer.
• Keep content family friendly• If not handled well, father/mother scenes can be quite disturbing
• Gory scenes are also not quite palatable to the judges.
• In future, we’ll limit the maximum upload size

SNR General Comments
• SNRs performed generally better with better scores; more effort was shown in the preparation of the video.
• Some videos really went all out to be ELI5 and greatly impressed the judges with their creativity.
• Content management is critical: some had very heavy content which made it rather droning
• Side note: do control usage of memes and inside jokes• The video ultimately is targeted at a general audience.

SNR MCQSecond Easiest Question: Q45 (87% correct)
• Consider statements regarding the “smell” of the Milky Way
Most incorrect answers: Q11 (22% correct)
• Consider the following statements about a non-rotating black hole
• Common error is assuming all black holes have a EH density > Earth.
• But 𝜌 =𝑀
𝑉→ 𝜌 ∝
𝑀
𝑟3
• Further, note that 𝑟 =𝐺𝑀
𝑐2→ 𝑟 ∝ 𝑀
• Combining the two: 𝜌 ∝1
𝑀2 meaning that EH density decreases rapidly as mass increases

JNR DRQ 1: Goals and Intentions
• Part 1: To think about different types of light astronomy and what makes them work.
• Part 2: To think about how astronomy is carried out through spectral methods.
• Part 3: To investigate a common concept in virtually anything to do with distributions and waves – the Full-Width Half-Maximum.

General Comments: JNR DRQ 1
• Part 1 (i to vii): The trend of marks is like a smile – starts high, goes down, and goes back up. Good understanding of different astronomy types, except maybe gamma-ray astronomy. Oops?
• Part 2 (viii to x): The trend starts high and drops real fast like the Admiral’s jaw at the Starship Enterprise’s repair bill. But if you remembered to submit the graph, you probably got that part right.
• Part 3 (xi to xiii): You guys hate math. What did math ever do to you? :(

Goals of the question
• Guide students to understand the simplest physical model of gravitational lensing
• How to determine the mass of a black hole from its Einstein radius
• Help students in understanding Hawking radiation:
i. black hole as a thermodynamical object
ii. evaporation of black hole
• Estimating the upper bound of energy release during BH merger
• Estimating the evaporation time of BH
