The aim of this app is to give an idea of the basic concepts of astronomy, its main achievements and modern problems.
The course consists of two blocks - methods and objects.
Description of astronomy as a profession: history, instruments, systems for measuring coordinates and time, the connection of astronomy with physics and cosmonautics, the principles of operation of the most important instruments.
Discussion of the physical nature, structure and evolution of planets, stars, galaxies and the Universe as a whole.
The Learn Astronomy app is for a wide audience of non-specialists and requires knowledge of the basics of physics and mathematics in the scope of the school curriculum.
Why is it worth starting to study astronomy?
1. Astronomy helps to think globally
2. You can improve the daily life of ordinary people
3. This is a very versatile science.
4. This science gives people knowledge
5. Astronomy teaches a lot of the right skills.
There are very few professional astronomers in the world - about 15 thousand people united by the International Astronomical Union.
But small enthusiastic space objects are observed and studied by thousands of amateurs with no less enthusiasm.
Curiosity about the mechanism of the universe, as a rule, is brought up at a young age. Therefore, today astronomy is quite rightly allocated time in many schools and circles.
But are these lessons effective everywhere?
The Learn Astronomy app fills in the gaps in classical knowledge about the nature and life of space objects.
So, here you can find absolutly free relevant science content:
