What is the maximum angular diameter of the largest asteroid, Ceres, as seen from Earth? Could Earth-based telescopes detect surface features? Could the Hubble Space Telescope? (Hints: Use the small-angle formula, Chapter 3. The angular resolution of Earth-based telescopes is about 1 arc second and of Hubble about 0.1 arc second. Ceres’s average distance from the sun is 2.8 AU.)
