Astronomy and Robotics
In collaboration with the Youth Astronomy Network, hosted and sponsored by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, this class will combine observing space and our universe with learning how the remotely controlled robotic telescope works.
Through accessing the MicroObservatory Robotic Telescopes run by the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, students will take astronomical images of the moon, the Sun, Nebulae, and Galaxies, and conduct scientific analysis to gain further understanding of these celestial bodies.
Furthermore, students will work on a capstone project under the guidance of our teacher to further solidify what they learned in the class. The final build from the capstone projects will be showcased on the Youth Astronomy Network.
This class is held online for 6-8th grade middle school students.
