Exploring Creation with High School Astronomy

This high school elective astronomy course is designed specifically to help your student sense the mystery of our Creator within the mysteries discovered by scientific study of our universe. 

This elective text travels through our universe, making connections for students to contemplate without the pressure of exams that core science materials require. This course covers: Space and interstellar Space, normal matter, antimatter, dark matter, astronomical measurement, the electromagnetic spectrum, the Sun and planets, orbital mechanics, stars and constellations, telescopes, galaxies, celestial navigation, and much more.

Astronomy is the perfect complement to Physics study where the mathematical levels are similar. Because there are no tests, however, any high school student would benefit from this elective course. The curriculum consists of the written text and questions that students answer “On Your Own.” This allows students to check their comprehension levels before moving on. While some questions are mathematical, students who do not have the mathematical skill can skip them and still gain full insight into the universe and their unique place within it.
