In this course, students investigate the history of astronomy and naked-eye observations. They examine the formation and evolution of the universe, stars, galaxies, and planets; use spectroscopic data to calculate the properties of stars and galaxies; and design engineering solutions to ease the difficulties of human exploration.

This course uses our model to give students the opportunity to develop both real-world 21st Century Skills and Social and Emotional Learning Soft Skills to develop college and career readiness.
