PHY 170: Introduction to Astronomy and Astrophysics
4.00 Credits
Centre College
A study of the structure and evolution of the universe on different length scales. The course begins with a study of the solar system and works outward through our galaxy and finally to the universe as a whole. The course then examines how our ideas of this structure and evolution have changed through history and how they have undergone a revolution in the past few decades due to new windows that have been opened for our study of the universe. Laboratory and observational sessions are required. Prerequisite: none, high school physics recommended.
