Great course covering many interesting aspects of astronomy and astrobiology! However it could use a few updates - for example, it's mentioning gravity waves as something yet to be detected.

Amazing for a beginner as it has no complex equations. This is a qualitative handling of the subject, mainly to spark interest, and encourage someone to pursue this as a career, or long term

Really interesting information. My husband works with space systems so it sparked great conversations. It could do with some updating, but being a free course, it was still a lot of fun.

Excellent course! I would recommend it to anyone interested in the subject of astronomy. The only drawback is that since, scientific findings change everyday, it needs to be updated.
