Astronomy 2110: The Solar System is a course at Vanderbilt University. All students submit blog posts of their choosing 8-10 times per semester. These posts help to bring astronomical topics into the lives of the students and help utilize the diverse backgrounds of all students.
In this course, there are 5 main units:
- Scale and Naked-Eye Observables
- History, Physical Laws, Light, Telescopes
- Planetary Formation, the Sun, and the Inner Solar System
- The Outer Solar System and Other Planetary Systems
- Life Elsewhere and Humans in Space
During each unit, each student must make one or two blog posts, one about the unit topic somehow (they can be creative here!) and often one about an astronomical topic of their choice. Every post is tagged.
The professor is Dr. Mallory Molina and they may be contacted via their e-mail address: mallory{dot}e{dot}molina –at– vanderbilt[dot]edu
