The Multiwavelength Universe

This website contains the work of students taking Astronomy 210: Observational Astronomy at Hampden-Sydney College. In this class, we use the Hampden-Sydney Observatory, other telescopes on the Skynet network, as well as radio telescopes at the Green Bank Observatory.

This course follows a unique curriculum called Astrophotography of the Multi-Wavelength Universe, or MWU! for short, which is being developed by astronomy professors around North America, including the instructor of this class. The MWU! project is funded by a $3M DoD National Defense Education Program (NDEP) award.

The very best student work from various colleges and universities is also published at the MWU! Blog of Blogs.
