Class PHY 133 – Solar System Astronomy Introduction to Astronomy Solar System basics

Possible Topics Celestial Motions Lunar Phases Geocentric/Heliocentric Model of our Solar System Light (?) Scale Models Comparative Planetology Definition of a Planet Sunspots

Celestial Motions Intro: “Lecture” on archeoastronomy Show students various sites/place into context Ask students to determine why stones, etc. are positioned in various places (in class? homework?) Build your own Stonehenge Leads into lessons on celestial motions

Lunar Phases Intro: Ask students to draw the Moon Ask students when to observe the Moon Show complete set of phases Give students a ball (& light source) and guide them in figuring out how to create them Guide students in figuring out when to observe them Guide students in figuring out why we see full Moon – lead to eclipses
