I have always been curious to whether other planets or even the moons of other planets could sustain life.]]> 2019-09-20 13:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/timothy_sullivan5270/ruvs8k0vneax/wish/387174385 Education timothy_sullivan5270 https://padlet.com/timothy_sullivan5270/ruvs8k0vneax/wish/387179967 Astronomers require a Bachelor's degree in physics, astronomy, astrophysics, or any other related field.  This takes four years to acquire.  PhD in astronomy is also required, which takes about 5-7 years.
