Conclusion

Hello! This will be my final blog post for the senior research project; the third trimester definitely flew by, and I'd like to take this final blog post to look back at what I came into the project hoping for and what I've learned throughout that process. In retrospect, I think I was a little ambitious with my project, and going into this project, I did anticipate that there would be difficulties, but I did not realize that I would be struggling with deciding how to approach my project. Through this project, I've learned how daunting research can be, especially when you are leading it.

Lastly, I would like to thank my fellow astrophysics senior projector, Sharvani Jha, for giving me useful feedback and asking me provoking questions (and for keeping me sane when we came across road blocks in our respective projects). Thank Raja, for inspiring me at COSMOS and providing the opportunity to discover an amazing branch of astrophysics. Also, thank you to Ms. Belcher, who kept me on track every week and provided us with resources for the project. I would also like to thank my advisor, Mr. Hrin, for keeping me on track every week, guiding me through the process of research, and always giving me advice in regards to my blog posts, presentation, and research advice.
