Astronomy on Tap Atlanta: Towards the Discovery of Life Outside of Our Solar System
March 19 @ 8:00 PM - 9:30 PM EDT
Free
Speaker: GSU Astrophysics PhD Candidate Tim Johns
Abstract: We only know of one planet in the Universe that hosts complex life, our home planet Earth. Where are the next best places outside of our Solar System to look for similar worlds? Are there BETTER environments than our Sun provides for exoplanets that are suitable for life? What do we know about detecting signatures on exoplanets that are relevant to life processes?
