Abstract

The observation of space seems to have always caused wonder into people's collective consciousness, generating a series of historical myths. More recently specially with the development of better tools alongside the constant refinement of the scientific method Astronomy has consolidated into increasing field of Physics. Yet, representing such field in an accurate manner for beginner students poses a challenge. Appropriate images and descriptions should be chosen, which proves itself a large part of such challenge. Here we perform a technique named Interdisciplinary Image Reading aimed at trying to minimize the problem by improving and therefore promoting better Astronomy Education.<br />Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure
