Thank you once again to Prof Impey and his team for putting together a professional and comprehensive course that can be understood by non-astrobiologists and at the same time does not dilute the quality of the information. Gordon Ralph.

Excellent course. Professor Impey is fantastic. I've completed both of his courses on Coursera and my only wish is that there were more! The "Galaxy Zoo" website is a takeaway from this course that I see myself using lots in the future.
