Description
 
 
This website is an on-line book that covers Astronomy of the Earth's Motion in Space, Newtonian Mechanics, The Sun, Spaceflight and Spacecraft, and a Math Refresher. It was originally intended for high schoolers, but the author has fleshed out many sections and some information is at the college level. The author has included a set of lesson plans to go along with the online material.
