Comenius and Leargus funded our Comenius Multilateral Project: "In Orbit with Europa".
The other colleges from Europe included: College Le Monteil (Auvergne, France), Leigh Technology Academy (Kent, UK), Escola Secundaria Citadela (Cascais, Portugal), Moreton Hall (Shropshire, UK) and PiOA (Grudziadz, Poland).

Each of our schools have searched for, located and photographed a number of asteroids, including Bilkis and Hermione - yes, as in "Harry Potter" !

We have generated light curves of the asteroid, and considered such things as the orbit, rotation and shape of the asteroids. Not bad, considering these heavenly bodies are located somewhere between Mars and Jupiter. Guess how far away that is !
