Astrophysics may be a discipline of Astronomy, which deals with the laws of physics and chemistry to elucidate the birth, life and death of stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae and other entities in the universe are imposed. It has two sibling sciences, astronomy and cosmology, and therefore the lines between them is fuzzy.Astronomy creates physical theories of small to medium-size structures within the universe. Cosmology does this for the larger structures, and the universe as a whole. In the field, the three disciplines form a tight-knit family. Some areas where we will see the applications of research in astronomy are electronics, advanced computing, communication satellites, optics, solar panels and MRI Scanners.
