The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.

Astronomy notes is an educational resource for introductory astronomy classes for undergraduates. This section describes the celestial sphere, coordinate systems, the motion of the stars. There are also sections describing time, the seasons, time zones, the phases of the moon, solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and the motions of the planets.
