The Search for Life in the Universe: The search for life and life-
friendly environments in the universe is an interdisciplinary focus
of modern science that seeks to address one of the oldest and most
profound questions of human existence: are we alone? This course
explores the origin, nature, and history of life on Earth, prospects
for life in our own and other planetary systems, extra-solar planet
detection, and the possibility of other technological civilizations.
