This course might be too challenging if you go into it was zero physics under your belt. The formulae discussed aren't very difficult, but I would not have had an easy time with them without some physics from highschool under my belt.

The course's biggest strength are its scope and the interviews that the professor had with leading scientists. Scope wise you will cover a lot of the latest discoveries in astronomy and biology, from planet finding missions to extremophile bacteria. The interviews are all interesting, and bring in some famous scientists like Freeman Dyson.

I recommend taking the lectures at 2x speed, if you can handle the math.

While in some aspects the course would benefit from more explanations on the steps done to achieve certain formulas and equations, most ideas in the course are novel, clear and helpful for learning about planetary science and space. I liked that the course gives a gateway to then further explore the topic.

Incredible Resources, But A Bit Monotonous Which Sucks Out The Enthusiasm To Complete The Course. But Make No Mistake, This Is One Brilliant Course And You *MUST* Try This To Understand The Universe Around You A Little Better.

Definitely learned a lot but the exercises could have been a bit more involved.

It's also too easy to get away with submitting blank essays, but I suppose that's to the loss of the student.

It was nice and well done. LAcks perhaps of explining exercises and solving problems. I don+t know if there is a certificate...
