Hello everyone and welcome to the starting point of my astronomy and astrophysics series! Space is something I am very passionate about and I’m very excited to giude you through some basic steps of learning about our universe in a scientific way. This post will simply outline some of the material I will cover in this series.

+

What to Expect from this Series:

+

I will start out discussing basic things like computing the force of gravity and finding the distances to the closest stars using a trivial trigonometric method called Parallax. As the series goes on, more advanced topics will be discussed such as exoplanet discovery methods and cosmology. Keep in mind that as the topics will become more advanced, in the grand scheme of cosmology and advanced astrophysics, they are still quite rudimentary. Some topics will include:

+
+
    +
  • Exoplanets
    • +
  • Black holes
    • +
  • Calculating distanes in the universe
    • +
  • Types of stars
    • +
  • Luminosity
    • +
+
+

I can’t wait to start writing about this topic! I hope you glean some useful information and that you begin to look at the universe in a new light! (Pun intended? …maybe.)

+

Why Read this Series:

+

I believe that this series will serve to increase in its readers a sense of awe about the universe. This place we happen to find ourselves in is truly a spectacular place indeed and studying it from a scientific perspective may just reveal something about why it exists (and why we exist) in the first place. A thorough study of the universe can shed light on the nature of its Creator.

For all that and more, I hope to see you in these next few posts!
