This course will explore the new field of extrasolar planet search and life as a planetary phenomenon.

By using current news, scientific articles and in depth discussion, this course will teach the core concepts needed to explore life on other planets, with a  very strong interdisciplinary component.

At the end we will use one class to discuss science of other worlds in SF movies (18. Dec) and explore them using the physics studied in the course
