Astronomy is the science of everything beyond the earth, from our upper
atmosphere out through the solar system to the stars
and galaxies beyond, reaching all the way back to the very
beginnings of space and time. Astronomy is the oldest science
with a History that goes back more than two thousand years.
Its development has encouraged advances in Maths, Engineering
and Computers. Until recently, all astronomical observations
were carried out from the surface of the earth, but over the
last few decades telescopes (and humans) have started to
operate in earth orbit and beyond.
