Browse Hierarchy SPCE102: Introduction to the Universe

Back to SCH19: School of Chemical and Physical Sciences
An introduction to astronomy and astrophysics for students from all backgrounds. We will explore objects from the relatively small and nearby, in our Solar System, to the largest and most distant objects in the Universe: galaxies and galaxy clusters. You will learn about the Big Bang origin and evolution of the expanding Universe, and along the way be introduced to some of the most extreme places and phenomena known - neutron stars, black holes and supernovae. Coming back down to Earth, you will discuss dark skies, Māori astronomy, waka navigation and space travel as a mechanism for freedom and development.
