Program Overview

It is an exciting time to be studying astronomy. The astronomy news regularly reports on the existence and characteristics of exoplanets, the search for water on Mars, gravitational lensing of distant young galaxies, wildly energetic explosions of dying stars, attempts to detect particles of dark matter, space missions to asteroids or Pluto or the edge of the solar system, and on and on and on, from the tiniest particles and earliest moments of time to the large-scale structure of the universe as a whole.
