With the modern scientific age of powerful telescopes, astronomers have peered farther out into space and have uncovered an incredibly fascinating Universe. From our very own unique Solar System to the mysterious quasars, astronomy is an engaging and diverse area of science. In this 12-week class, we will start at the beginning with the ancient astronomers’ understanding of the cosmos and work our way through to modern astronomy. Along our journey, we'll discuss what different space...
12 lessons//12 Weeks
Week 1Lesson 1Ancient astronomyBefore the invention of the telescope, how did astronomers of ancient times view the heavens? What tools did they have to make scientific discoveries? In this class, we will study about some ancient astronomers and their contributions to scientific understanding.Week 2Lesson 2Telescopes and OpticsWhen Galileo first peered through the telescope at the night sky, astronomy was immediately changed forever. For the first time, moons of other worlds were visible and astronomers could take first-hand observations of distant places. In this class, we will learn the basic principles of how telescopes work and why they are so important to astronomy.Week 3Lesson 3Hubble Space TelescopeModern astronomy would not be what it is without the Hubble Space Telescope. From its breathtaking images to its profound scientific discoveries, this telescope has revolutionized our understanding of the Universe. In this class, we will learn the history of the Hubble Space Telescope and study some of its major scientific contributions.Week 4Lesson 4Solar System OverviewWe live in a unique place in the Universe. Our Solar System is an incredible place, with its eight planets, many dwarf planets, and other fascinating objects all gravitationally bound to our life-sustaining star. In this class, we will study about the components of our Solar System and look at some unique features of each.Week 5Lesson 5Tour the Milky WayOur Solar System is nestled within a spiral arm of the Milky Way and is surrounded by stars, clusters, and nebulae. In this class, we will look at many different objects that make up our Milky Way Galaxy and where they are located in relation to our Solar System.Week 6Lesson 6ExoplanetsWhile our Solar System is unique, scientists have discovered thousands of other worlds beyond our own. In this class, we will study about how astronomers detect exoplanets and learn about some interesting features of these alien planets.Week 7Lesson 7Changes in SpaceWhile we don't observe dramatic changes in most stars of our night sky, astronomers through the centuries have witnessed and recorded changes in the heavens. In this class, we will discuss how stars can change and how direct evidence can help astronomers understand more about stellar life cycles.Week 8Lesson 8White Dwarfs and Neutron StarsWhat happens when a star like our Sun ends its life? What happens when a massive star dies? These are questions astronomers are actively researching, and in this class, we will investigate what is currently known about white dwarfs and neutron stars.Week 9Lesson 9Black HolesSometimes it is said that “fact can be stranger than fiction.” This holds true for the type of objects astronomers call ‘black holes.’ While there is still much about them that is unknown, scientists are beginning to unravel some of their mysteries. In this class, we will talk about what evidence astronomers have about black holes and we’ll also discuss some of the theories behind them.Week 10Lesson 10Tour the UniverseWhat makes up the Universe? Are galaxies randomly distributed throughout or do we see organization? What do astronomers see as they peer deeper into the Universe? In this class, we’ll talk about different objects that can be found in the Universe and where astronomers find them.Week 11Lesson 11Dark Matter and Dark EnergyDark matter and dark energy are high on the list of astronomical mysteries. In fact, we know more about what dark matter is not than we know what it is. In this class, we will discuss the evidence for dark matter and current research around this topic. We'll also talk about the concept of dark energy.Week 12Lesson 12The Electromagnetic UniverseThere is much more to the Universe than what meets the eye. By using specialized telescopes that measure the Universe in different wavelengths such as X-rays and infrared, astronomers have a deeper understanding of the Universe. In this class, we’ll study about these telescopes and discuss what fascinating objects they have discovered and what scientific discoveries they have revealed.
