      It’s the physics of the universe. It’s the study of the movement of the stars and planets, the physics of how the stars produce energy and detecting the stars using telescopes and radio telescopes. Astronomers get to go to lots of great places. Some of the best telescopes are in Hawaii.

      Not to be confused with astrology!
