The course has observations and measurements of planetary, stellar and galactic astronomy. There are indoor experiments that will acquaint you with the telescope, the coordinate system used to locate astronomical objects, the motion of objects in the sky and other concepts in Astronomy. The outdoor experiments will use planisphere, binocular and telescope to make observations and measurements. The location will be announced later. If you cannot come during the scheduled periods, please contact your instructor before the Sun Lab starts and we will schedule special sessions.
