Yesterday classes got back tests and we discussed/had notes&readings regarding historical perspectives of the universe.
Today we explored a bit about our sun; specifically its temperature, composition, and our relative location to it. We also started to look at how we know what we know about the universe: assumptions about light that we receive and that the rules of the universe must be the same here as in distant places (again, uniformitarianism).
