Astronomy/Space Exploration
(9 weeks, .5 credit)
The astronomy course provides a descriptive study of the universe and the place that our solar system occupies within the universe. The motion of our solar system and the instruments used to study our galaxy are explored, along with travel, work, and exploration in space.
Welcome to Astronomy
Astronomy (from the Greek words astron (ἄστρον), "star", and nomos (νόμος), "law") is the scientific study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, and galaxies) and phenomena that originate outside the Earth's atmosphere. It is concerned with the evolution, physics, chemistry, meteorology, and motion of celestial objects, as well as the formation and development of the universe.
Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Astronomers of early civilizations performed methodical observations of the night sky, and astronomical artifacts have been found from much earlier periods. However, the invention of the telescope was required before astronomy was able to develop into a modern science. Some course level essential questions that guide our instruction are:
- How was our universe formed? What is the evidence?
- How has the universe changed over time?
- What tools and technology have informed the science of astronomy?
- How does our solar system operate within the galaxy and universe?
Several organization support the study of astronomy, these include the incredible NASA Web Site, Sky and Telescope Magazine, and The International Year of Astronomy 2009.
