How have archival methodologies participated in the ongoing processes of settler colonialism and imperialism, in the U.S. and elsewhere? How have political and social movements archived themselves, and how have they been represented in archives? How can we approach archival research, and archiving itself, as practices of decolonization? What are the stakes of digitizing paper archives, and how are archivists, researchers, and activists archiving "born digital" materials, ranging from reports of police violence to Instagram memes?

In this section of AST 337 we provide an introduction to the techniques of gathering and analyzing astronomical data, with an emphasis on optical observations related to studying stellar evolution. Students use Smith’s telescopes and CCD cameras to collect and analyze their own data, using the Python computing language.

Discover the fundamental properties of stars from the analysis of digital images and application of basic laws of physics. Extensive use of computers and scientific programming and data analysis. Offered in alternate years with 225. Prerequisites: PHY 117, MTH 111, plus one astronomy class.
