Spring 2018


Welcome to the Spring 2018 edition of Astronomy 121: Introduction to Astrophysics. This is the web page for the lab which meets on Wednesdays. The labs will be taught by Froney Crawford. Many of the lab details can be found in the lab manual.


Some Administrative Information

For the lab, you will need the following items:

Our labs will meet every week on Wed from 7:30 - 9:20 p.m., usually in Hackman 425. However, we will sometimes meet elsewhere (depending on the lab). I will let you know in advance (probably by email) which lab we will be doing in a given week and where we will meet. I'll have more to say to you in person about what needs to be turned in and graded and when it is due.

Note that your lowest lab score will be dropped at the end of the semester (or, alternatively, you can choose to skip one lab). There are serious penalties for any additional missed labs. We will discuss this in more detail when we meet in person.

Froney's contact information is:

Come see me anytime!
