Astro 16 is an introductory course for students who've had some calculus and physics but not necessarily taken any astronomy courses before. The material we cover focuses mostly on stars, but also the interstellar medium (ISM), out of which stars are formed, and galaxies, which are the huge, gravitationally bound groups of stars and ISM. The course has a bi-weekly lab component.
