Have you ever looked up at the sky, and wondered what lies beyond the clouds? Get ready for the ultimate adventure — a journey through our Solar System and its wonders! Lecture material will provide both overviews of planetary bodies in our Solar System and examine fundamental geologic processes like volcanism, tectonism, and impact cratering. Our bias will be towards the rocky inner planets, but we will also study asteroids and the outer Solar System. An emphasis will be placed throughout the course on how observations of the Solar System are made. From scorching Mercury to icy Neptune, each planet and planetary body holds a unique story waiting to be explored!
