Northumberland Learning Connection presents:
SPACE: LIGHT YEARS and DARK MATTER
Stellar speakers explore the origins of the universe, the colonization of space, interplanetary travel, and the latest cosmic discoveries.
Thursday, October 3, 2024 - “Exploring the Planets with 5 Senses”
Presenter DR. JOHN MOORES holds the York Research Chair in Space Exploration at York University. He was a Participating Scientist on NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover mission, and contributed to missions to Saturn’s moon Titan and the Martian Arctic.
Our ancestors experienced the five classical planets of our solar system only as points of light in the night sky. Today, we know these places as worlds in their own right. John will take us on a tour of the solar system to understand what it would be like to see, hear, touch, smell and even taste in the environments of our planetary neighbors.
