| - | Attach a model exoplanet to the rotating table. | + | - Cover the rotating table with a black cloth. |
| - | Connect the power source (EICO 1064) to the motor in the rotating table. | + | - Suspend the diffuse light source above the rotating table. |
| - | Start at 0V and slowly turn up the voltage until a desired rotation rate is obtained. | + | - Attach a model exoplanet to the rotating table. |
| - | Mount the light sensor a suitable distance away so that when the table rotates a periodic decrease in the intensity will be observed. | + | - Connect the power source (EICO 1064) to the motor in the rotating table. |
| - | Connect the light sensor to the Vernier LabPro interface. | + | - Start at 0V and slowly turn up the voltage until a desired rotation rate is obtained. |
