You must read the syllabus (see link below) prior to attending the first lab meeting. You will be building a telescope at your first lab meeting --- a telescope you get to keep! So, don't miss that first lab meeting! |
There are no prerequisities. You are not expected to have any previous experience using a telescope, or to have any specific knowledge of the night sky. You will learn any related background in the corequisite lecture course Phys 1055 Introduction to Astronomy.
