ASTR 1000 - Descriptive Astronomy

(3L,3CR) [E] Designed to give a general understanding of modern astronomy. A background in historical astronomy will open the course. From there, a survey of the solar system and the objects in it will be discussed. An overview of the life and death of a star will follow. Finally, a description of the galaxy will be covered along with a study on the various theories of the origin of the universe. (Taken with ASTR 1015 , equivalent to ASTR 1050  [SE].)
