Astronomy is a compulsory subject for the first five years at Hogwarts. The Astonomy professor is Aurora Sinistra. The class meets at midnight at the top of the Astronomy Tower. Essays for the theory portion involve learning a lot of facts — Ron and Harry’s fifth year essay on Jupiter’s moons, for example ( OP14). Nonverbal magic: Rowle was able to cast the Silencing Charm on Hagrid without speaking the incantation during the Battle of Hogwarts, [3] and was able to fire multiple non-verbal spells at Tonks during their duel in the Battle of the Astronomy Tower, and later at Hagrid during his escape. In their fifth year, they were given a lot of homework during their Astronomy classes. They had to study Jupiter’s moons which included Io and Callisto. They were said to be discovered by Galileo Galilei. Io, Callisto, Ganymede, and Europa are four of the moons of Jupiter that are known as Galilean moons in the muggle world. They are named after the four lovers of Zeus, who is the leader of the pantheon of gods in Greek Mythology. They had to study these moons in detail, including writing an essay containing facts like Europa being covered in ice, which Harry accidentally wrote as mice, and Io containing a lot of volcanoes. Hogwarts students studied Jupiter's moons and wrote an essay for their homework containing facts such as Europa being covered by ice and Io having many volcanoes. [12] They filled in blank star charts [13] and the homework during this year became intensive enough that some students had to organise a meeting to help each other get through it.

Albus Dumbledore: " Severus... please..." Severus Snape: " Avada Kedavra!" — Dumbledore pleading for Snape to end his life [src] In the book of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Rowle is the Death Eater to shout at Hagrid, however, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, an unidentified male Death Eater does, possibly because Rowle's character is not as big as in the books—which is strange, considering Rowle has been in the films before and this character randomly showed up for this scene.In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, it is stated that students are only allowed to enter the tower during Astronomy lessons. However, in the video game adaptation of Half-Blood Prince, Harry can freely enter it. It is possible that the rule applies to first years but not to sixth years. The Astronomy Tower was among the tallest towers in Hogwarts Castle and was one of the most fascinating rooms of a magical castle. Believed to be the tallest tower at the castle, it was almost the same height as the Gryffindor dormitory and the Ravenclaw dormitory. Like the greenhouse where the mandrake plants were grown for the petrified to heal and Horace Slughorn’s classroom, which marked the place where both Tom Riddle and Harry asked for something from Horace Slughorn, the Astronomy Tower was also a very familiar place for Harry Potter fans as it was the place that Albus Dumbledore left from with Harry and returned there, only to be tried to be killed by Draco Malfoy, and to be killed by Severus Snape.

Astronomy lessons were spent learning the names of stars and the movements of planets. [3] It was a required class from year one until year five, [3] and became an optional subject for the final two years. Since he was featured on old wanted posters, it's likely that he was imprisoned in Azkaban following Voldemort's first defeat. If so this is ironic as his possible ancestor Damocles Rowle was the one to establish Azkaban as a prison. The top of this tower where observation sessions are held for Astronomy is more or less directly above the front entrance of the castle; the top of the tower has a parapet ( OP31). Thorfinn Rowle is portrayed by British actor Rod Hunt in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and in the film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 6, Chapter 33 ( Imitation Game) - Astronomy Lesson "Cosmic Ages" Ernie Macmillan might have participated, since in the book he talked with Harry during the battle, but this is unconfirmed. According to Rufus Scrimgeour (and Hermione Granger) in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 7 ( The Will of Albus Dumbledore), the Ministry has the right to maintain possession of Dumbledore's bequests for thirty-one days only, in accordance with the Decree for Justifiable Confiscation. Dumbledore's bequests were delivered to Ron, Hermione and Harry on 31 July 1997: Harry Potter's seventeenth birthday. As it is referred in that chapter that the "thirty-one days are up", Dumbledore died exactly thirty-one days earlier, in the evening of 30 June, assuming that those thirty-one days started when Dumbledore died. Magical telescopes and lenses were used in the wizarding world of Harry Potter to make observations in the night sky. One of the most popular shops for buying this equipment was Wiseacre’s Wizarding Equipment, situated in Diagon Alley. They were known for selling a wide range of products related to Astronomy, including star charts, moon charts, telescopes, glass phials, and globes of the moon, planets, and the sun. Magical lenses and telescopes are believed to use some form of magic to magnify images of the heavenly bodies seen through them.
