Astrochemistry Lecture Note Prepared by Adwin Boogert Herschel Science
Center - NASA A short lecture note. Kind of a nice basic course on
astrochemistry, though: the chemistry of interstellar space, chemical reactions
in space, techniques for observing interstellar molecules, evolution of the
molecule and its implications for astrobiology.

This educational note coming out of MIT is a resource
that gives an in-depth overview on astrochemistry, focusing primarily on the
topic of spectral lines and their significance in understanding cosmic entities.
The topics included are as follows: Radio Telescope Mechanics
Emission/Absorption of Spectral Lines Detection of Stars Detection of Planets
Detection of Galaxies. This paper will try to help students acquire more
significant knowledge in space science: the processes of chemistry and the
principles upon which astronomy observations are based.
