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.

Diificult sometimes but surely a rewarding course in the end. I enjoyed it and I am looking forward to taking more advanced Astronomy courses.

Thanks Prof Impey and UA & Steward Observatory staff

Intriguing, well structured, supported with interesting examples and image/video materials. Also, probably the key part - amazing lecturer, who makes you fall in love with science from the very first minutes.

I think it's one of my favourite Mooc courses so far.

It would be really great if there would be a possibility to study astronomy to a full undergraduate degree online (and don't get poor by paying the fees).

Thank you so much Professor Chris and team for the course. It is really opening and refreshing at the same time for my science interest through astronomy. I wish I can have other courses too in the future.

Loved the course and the professor. Learned a lot. As a retiree I am interested in auditing courses and not necessarily in completing all the assignments. Have highly recommended the course and Coursera.

it is an amazing subject, and it is well taught by professor Impey. It was so much fun the way he presented it, with a lot of nice multimedial material but also a lot of hard work to complete the course.

This course covered everything and helped me understand the universe at a much deeper level than I had picked up in my 68 years on this earth. Looking forward to the new course from Chris and his team.
