Higher Ed Account Features
Slooh offers three account types for college astronomy departments: Intro to Astro, Astronomy Major, and Graduate Research. All accounts come with Advanced Missions including access to FITS data for astrometry, photometry, and image processing. The features available in each account type are explained in this video.
Introductory Astronomy Curriculum
With Slooh Quests, Astronomy 101 students learn core concepts and follow in the footsteps of famous discoverers before using Advanced Missions to pursue their own investigations. Advanced Missions include choosing a telescope by date and time, by catalog or coordinates, a selection of processing options, and FITS data.
Career Opportunities in Space
Space isn't just for rocket scientists and astronauts. With partners the Space Foundation and Space Workforce for Tomorrow, Slooh's industry certification program inspires, prepares, and ultimately employs the future space workforce. Students accumulating Slooh Badges and Gravity Points will earn space industry workforce certification in 2025.
See why institutions like Purdue, Cornell, Princeton, Bucknell, the University of New Hampshire, Windward Community College, Austin Peay, the Weizmann Institute, UAE University, the University of Oldenburg and so many more are choosing Slooh to attract, delight, and engage more students into astronomy.
Case Studies
Slooh’s Astronomy Major accounts provide access to Advanced Missions (choosing
telescope, date, time, by catalog or coordinates), 18 of Slooh’s astronomical
catalogs, and advanced processing options including luminance filter-only.
They include five standard and one advanced mission scheduled at any one time.
This enables students to conduct basic astrometry and photometry (using standard filters).
