This work presents the proposal and the results of the evaluation of an Introduction to Astronomy course in the Distance Education modality in the context of the New High School. We conceive Astronomy as an interdisciplinary science that arouses the curiosity and fascination of humanity since the most remote times, being considered as the oldest of sciences. We understand that the new information and communication technologies are potentializing the educational process and facilitating the construction of the knowledge. And based on this premise, we present in chapter 2, distance education as a pedagogical instrument, contextualizing the new information and communication technologies as an educational tool, in addition to contextualizing in a historical and evolutionary perspective the generations of Distance Education and the legal frameworks of this teaching modality. In chapter 3, we highlight Astronomy as an interdisciplinary science, presenting based on the National Curriculum Parameters and on the Common National Curricular Base, the contents proposed for elementary school, as well as the competences and skills expected for high school. We characterize the proposal for the new high school, and we propose Moodle as a virtual learning environment for the implementation of the Introduction to Astronomy course as an educational product with a view to the fundamental triads of the proposal (equal learning rights, formative itineraries and expansion of the course load). Following up, we present evaluation criteria consolidated in the literature and through a case study with a qualitative approach, we present a compilation of charts and graphs discussing the impressions of teachers and students on the viability of the educational product that showed to be well evaluated and with satisfactory results in its application with 20 high school students at Educandário Oliveira Brito in Euclides da Cunha- Bahia.
