Space

infoWhy this? Stellar evolution, orbital motion, and cosmology show how physical laws explain the Solar System and the wider universe. Interpreting astronomical observations helps us understand the origins of elements and evaluate evidence for an expanding universe.

scheduleWhy now? As the final unit, space draws together forces to explain orbits, fusion and energy transfer to explain stars, and wave behaviour to interpret red-shift evidence. Applying these ideas on astronomical scales consolidates the course and shows how different areas of physics combine to explain the universe.
