Overview of the universe beyond our solar system. Understand progressively larger structures in Astronomy, such as stars, galaxies, and extra-galactic structures by understanding the processes that shape them. Use observations (from telescopes, spacecraft, neutrino and gravity wave detectors, etc.) the scientific method, and basic physical concepts. Briefly consider relativity, black holes, spacetime, and the history and fate of the universe. Transfer: CSU; UC
