Students will survey, without the use of advanced mathematics, recent discoveries about the planets and other objects in the solar systems. They will also study the sun, the existence of planetary systems around other stars, and the search for life. Note: This is an introductory course in astronomy intended for students not specializing in science. No prior study of physics or astronomy is required. Note: This course may not be used for credit towards a science degree or as a prerequisite for further science courses. This course may be used to partially fulfill quantitative requirements for a Bachelor of Arts degree, science requirements for an elementary teacher education program, lab science requirements for an Associate of arts degree, and liberal education/breadth credits for Kwantlen degrees.
