    Description
    This course analyzes the physical principles, logic, and development of stellar astronomy from ancient times to the present, with an emphasis on recent developments. The relationship of Earth to its deep-space environment and contrast the Sun to other types of stars will be examined. The organization in space and time of the hierarchy of the cosmos from stellar systems through the universe on its largest observable scale, and investigate the observational strategies and equipment that are used to investigate it will be synthesized.
