An introductory astronomy course aimed at exploring the historical and modern techniques by which scientists observe objects in the sky. Topics will include the historical development of science, motions in the sky, light and telescopes, and digital imaging. While some classes will be held in the planetarium, no nighttime telescope work will be required. The mathematics will be at the level of high school algebra and geometry.
