Description

This course is an introduction to general astronomy, primarily for non-science majors. It is essentially a non-mathematical survey of the solar system, stars, galaxies and cosmos, and the methods and equipment used by astronomers to obtain their information. Several viewing sessions may be included each semester as weather permits.
