I really enjoyed working through the modules of this course. The material was interesting and enlightening. The self-paced format worked well for me and I will look for similar courses going forward.

One of the best courses around. It's not a graduate course, and it does not teach you the secret of physics, but the compact, vivid presentation gives you a great overview of the field and of the exciting things to come.

A very clear study for beginners in astronomy. Some concept might be a little too hard but is acceptable. Good use of resources, especially outside videos to support teaching of the class which makes the class more fun.

Great course for students willing to study Astronomy or Astrophysics, and has a lot to offer. Professor Chris Impey has been a great teacher throughout the course, and I'd love to take any other course he has to offer.

This course widened my knowledge about Astronomy and related fields. Professor Impey was able to deliver the materials well, and was able to impart many knowledge to me. I will certainly enroll in his other courses.

this course was very helpful. Astronomy has always been one of the most interesting topics. There is so much about this universe that is unknown to mankind. this course has covered almost every topic in astronomy.

Outstanding course that pushed my limited Astronomy knowledge to the edge but didn't put me overboard! A challenge but an awesome experience. The professor from University of Arizona was as amazing as the topic!

Extremely interesting, deeply detailed, excelent content workbook, understandable even if you're not in the field of astrophysics or chemistry. This is a course that anyone can take to learn about the universe.

Using entertainment media (excerpts from Family Guy, Star Trek, Star Wars, etc.) made this course not only interesting, but also fun. In some ways, they balance out the complex concepts present in some lessons.
