This course on the solar system aims to teach students about comparative planetology, covering topics such as planet composition, atmosphere, orbital parameters, and more. The course provides an in-depth look at the characteristics of planets, moons, asteroids, and comets within our solar system. The teaching method involves a series of lectures and demonstrations. This course is intended for individuals interested in astronomy, planetary science, or space exploration.
