This is an eminently made course, loaded with intriguing points of interest on the strategies and characteristic restrictions of astronomy. Both teachers are profoundly qualified, most definitely, however have a skill for clear correspondence and plain talking. This makes the course open to any individual who is OK with secondary school math. Its additionally a superb course for individuals who know something about material science. Its really certain Brian and Paul make the most of their work, and the presentation underlines pragmatic learning. Anybody taking these courses will take in a considerable measure about space science and astronomy, and furthermore the point of view utilized by physicists to handle issues of various sorts.

Course programme

Despite spectacular recent progress, there is still a lot we don't know about our universe. We don't know why the Big Bang happened. We don't know what most of the universe is made of. We don't know whether there is life in space. We don't know how planets form, how black holes get so big, or where the first stars have gone. This course will take you through nine of the greatest unsolved problems of modern astrophysics. We can't promise you the answers, but we will explain what we do and don't know, and give you an up-to-date understanding of current research. This course is designed for people who would like to get a deeper understanding of these mysteries than that offered by popular science articles and shows. This is the first of four ANUx courses which together make up the Australian National University's first year astrophysics program. It is followed by courses on exoplanets, on the violent universe, and on cosmology. These courses compromise the Astrophysics XSeries.
