The answer is the second one: latent fingerprints.

Explanation for each option:

  • Plastic fingerprints: These are three-dimensional impressions left on soft materials like wax or clay. They are not typically associated with being dusted or lifted from surfaces.

  • Latent fingerprints: These are invisible prints left by the natural oils and sweat on the skin. They can be found on glossy or light-colored surfaces and are often dusted or lifted for analysis, making this the correct answer.

  • Visible fingerprints: These are prints made when fingers are stained with a substance like ink or blood, making them visible without additional processing. They do not need to be dusted or lifted.

  • Liquid fingerprints: This is not a recognized category of fingerprints in forensic science.

In summary, latent fingerprints are the type that can be dusted or lifted from surfaces.

To simulate the night sky, we will be using the software Stellarium, which is free and easy to download/install. Go to the following link: https://stellarium.org/ and click on the platform you're using (Windows/Mac/Linux etc.) to install Stellarium. If you want to use the web version of Stellarium, consult the pdf document "How to Navigate in Stellarium-Web" in the sub-module. After you install and open Stellarium, you'll immediately find yourself with a view of the sky as seen from a field at the date time of your class. Stellarium sets the starting location to be Paris, France, so you'll need to change the starting location to NYC. If you move the mouse around the screen, you'll find two menu bars, one on the lower-left hand side of the screen, and another on the bottom of the screen. On the left-hand side menu, scroll over the options until you find the location option. Click on this a pop-up window appears with a world map. A red arrow shows your location as well as your latitude longitude. On the right hand side of the world map is a list of locations in Stellarium. Type New York into the search box a list of locations in New York state will appear in the list. Click on New York (sometimes it reads New York City, NY). Make sure the arrow changes position on the world map. Write down the numbers in the 'Latitude' and 'Longitude' boxes for your location (NYC). To make things easier to see near the horizon, you'll want to switch the landscape to get rid of the houses and trees that show up by default. To do this, move the mouse to the left-hand side menu and select "Sky and Viewing Options" In the window that
