Questions like how the universe was formed or why everything in the universe works the way it does have always fascinated me. I love learning about phenomena that happen outside our earths atmosphere. The more I learn about the universe, the more I realize just how much of it I do not know making me more curious to learn even more.

I joined Astronomy 16 because I want to learn how it feels to be in an astronomer’s shoes. I want to learn more about how Astronomers approach problems and how they get to their mind-blowing conclusions. I want to experience the joy that comes after successfully completing a challenging problem. I believe that working with other students in the class will be a transformative experience giving me chance to learn from others and to also share the knowledge that I have.
