    About this ebook

    What is a Quick Prep Sheet?

    Basically, it's us doing 99% of the prep work for you. We've taken input from the thousands of people who visit Free-Clep-Prep.com every day and put together a list of the terms and topics you'll need to know for the Astronomy DSST. We do the research and then teach what you need to know in an easily digestible way. All you have to bring is your appetite to learn.

    We keep these Quick Prep Sheets small on purpose. Almost all of them are under 30 pages/10,000 words and there is no fluff or filler material included. If you're looking for a 200+ page book to read, we've got some great recommendations on our free study guides. If you're a fan of flashcards, crib notes, or study sheets, then you are going to love our Quick Prep Sheets. Aside from a short intro and conclusion, every single word is there for one reason - to help you understand the material and pass your CLEP/DSST.

    Keeping it lean and mean also allows us to offer these at a fraction of what others are charging. Don't be put off by the price - Yes, we know it's ridiculously cheap and we're perfectly okay with that. Free-Clep-Prep is here to help you pass exams, not make a fortune. If we succeed at helping you pass, you'll tell others about us. Everyone wins. That's been our strategy for 4+ years now, and it's worked great so far.

    These take hundreds of hours to put together, but we're proud of the end result. Give our Quick Prep Sheets a try. You'll be happy you did!

      Astronomy DSST Quick Prep Sheet - Justin Orgeron

      Welcome to the Quick Prep Sheet for the Astronomy DSST!

      I’ll admit it, I’m a bit of a geek. I had a telescope growing up and I could spend hours reading about black holes and the latest exoplanet that they’ve found. This exam tends to attract that kind of person and if you’re a star-gazer yourself, then you’ll be fine with a bit of study. If that’s not you, there’s still no need to worry. We’ve got you covered. Everything below was written as if you’ve never heard of the material before.

      So how do you prepare? The same way you do for any exam – Learn the material! We’ve done our best to give you everything you need below. I know it’s a lot, but take your time and go through it all thoroughly. We’ve tried to make it all as clear and comprehensive as possible, but if you get confused on something, do some further research! Then come back when you fully understand the concepts and keep reading.

      Remember, I always suggest you use multiple resources for these exams and that advice hasn’t changed. Once you’re done here, go take our free full-length online practice test (http://practice-exams.free-clep-prep.com/login.php) and make sure you have the material down. Bring this Ebook with you to the testing center and use it for some last minute study in the car. Above all, don’t stress out over the exam! You can do this!

      With all that out of the way… on to the studying!

      History and Theories of Astronomy

      Heliocentric Theory – places the sun at the center of the solar system, stating that all other bodies in the solar system orbit it. This was in direct contradiction to Ptolemy’s geocentric theory, which stated the Earth was the center of the Universe.

      Nicolaus Copernicus – widely credited as the father of the heliocentric theory. Although he was not the first to propose the concept, his was the first mathematical model which correctly predicted the movement of the planets. He later published a book which was instrumental in making the idea
