Why astrophysics is used

×Astrophysics is used in observatory astronomy and theoretical astrophysics. It is concerned with finding out the measurable implications of physical models and figure out the observational consequences of those models. Astrophysics mainly focuses on the areas:

• Stellar dynamics and evolution
• Galaxy formation and evolution
• Magnetohydrodynamics
• Large-scale structure of matter in the universe
• Origin of cosmic rays
• General relativity and physical cosmology, including string cosmology and astroparticle physics.

Astrophysics is also used as the basis for making calendars and navigation. It is also being used as an important input for religions because since the beginning, astrologers taking help of this science to in their astrological works. Astrophysics uses data gathered by astronomers using telescopes on Earth and in space – combined with the laws and theories of physics – in order to interpret the universe around us.
