Phys 1010 will only be offered in the Spring semester starting Spring 2027. Other course to consider are Astro 1200 (3 Cr - Sky and Solar system), Astro 1500 (3 Cr - Stars, Galaxies and Cosmology) and Phys 1150 (Physics of Life Sciences).
Labs run separately in Phys 1310, 1320, 2310, and 2320. For example, Phys 1310 (4 Cr) has a lecture (numbered section) and a discussion (also called recitation - lettered section). Phys 1310L (1 Cr) is a separate lab course. The Lab can be taken concurrently with the main course, or after it. Please check with your advisor if you need a Lab. There is an online Lab section offered in Phys 1310L and 2310L.
Online courses Astro 1020 (1 Cr) and Astro 1030 (1 Cr) meet in the second half of each semester. Astro 1200, Phys 1310/L, Phys 2310/L and Phys 2320 are typically offered online in the Summer.
