Cosmology is the study of the Universe as a whole. While astronomy studies individual celestial objects such as stars, planets, and galaxies, cosmology focuses on the big picture: How the Universe works, how it came into being, and how it might end. It studies the structure of galaxies and the structure of space-time (warpage via black holes etc), the nature of time itself, mass and energy, string theory, and whether there are actually other Universes, in a 'neverending multiverse' or omniverse.
Cosmology differs from Astronomy. Astronomy seems to concentrate on the naming of stars and the description of Earth's solar system. Cosmology concentrates more on the physiology of the Universe as it were.
