astronomy class

School planet lessons

A course of study covering celestial objects, space, and the physical universe.

The term typically refers to an educational setting—high school, college, or informal—where students learn about stars, planets, galaxies, and cosmic phenomena: I have astronomy class at eight in the morning.

Often shortened to astro class in casual speech.
