Astronomy

For the 2011-2012 academic year, we will be using Universe, 9/e, William J. Kaufmann III, Roger A. Freedman (W. H. Freeman and Co.). This is a college level introduction to astronomy intended for both science and non-science majors. It is supported by a "companion website" Freeman Astronomy, and we will be using this as a source for some quiz drill work.

You may order all texts through Scholars Online Bookstore. Be sure to order a version (I'm recommending ISBN #1429263768) containing the DVD.

Starry Night Deluxe version planetarium program.

Voyager III Planetarium program (this is the one I use to make all my diagrams).
