Links from Class

I posted the PowerPoints from the first half of my ASTR 100 class on archive.org.

Try this link, but don’t shoot me if it doesn’t work yet: Astro 100 PowerPoints 1 [1]

Here is an incomplete list of the links I’ve used in class – either for images, or for movies. I will go through and make them all more specific, and make sure each is correctly referenced within the PowerPoint, but I wanted to give you something to work with for now.
