Sounds like homework...why don't you describe it to show us what you have learned as we are not allowed to do homework for you.
This was the subject on last Sunday evening's "Cosmos" program for the entire hour. You might be able to see it now or soon online. If I can find a link, I'll post it. I'm on my Kindle right now, but will post again once I am on my pc.
