 |content=This is an overview of six associated astronomy-related lessons.
-|strategy= The Astronomy Masterclass was developed to inspire the next generation of scientists and in particular physicists. Although this course of 6 lessons is framed mostly around the science of astronomy it draws on many themes from physics and aims to show how they all can link together. Additionally it is structured so that it deliberately does not cut across material in most standard GCSE science courses and absolutely does not aim to answer every question. A deliberate part of the design was to visit each topic area only briefly and leave students hungry for more.

 |Learning Objectives=• Increase the likelihood that the students will take an A level in Science (specifically Physics),<br />•	Inspire some pupils to pursue degrees/careers in Science based disciplines,<br />• Demonstrate that the Science learnt at GCSE barely scratches the surface of the complexity of the universe we live in.
