Astronomy for Science Olympiad

Consistently ranked one of the hardest events, this document is a detailed guide to Science Olympiad Astronomy. I wrote this document from scratch during my freshman year of high school while adding more and more information every year. Coming from a 3 time Minnesota state champion and Nationals top 10 Astronomy winner, these brilliantly compile notes will guarantee you success in Science Olympiad Astronomy. Most online Astronomy resources will either only provide conceptual information without Astrophysics while other Astrophysics documents will provide much-advanced calculations beyond the bounds of the Science Olympiad. As I focused on the Math and Astrophysics parts of this event in my years of competition, these notes serve as an exceptional guide for all the required math and Astrophysics for the event. From radiation and luminosity laws and orbital mechanics to Hubble's expansion of space and distance modulus, I promise I got you covered.
