Dinosaurs Are Older Than Europa's Surface: an Unbelievable Science Fact with Dr. Jessica Noviello

Подробнее о видео

Our guest is Dr. Jessica Noviello, a planetary scientist working at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. Her current research work includes modeling the interior structure and composition of ultra-short period exoplanets; studying the extent of cryovolcanism on Pluto’s largest moon, Charon; and detecting signs of life (called biosignatures) on distant exoplanets. She also leads the Professional Advancement Workshop Series (PAWS), designed for early career NASA scientists as a part of the NASA Astrobiology Program, as well as serving as a volunteer on multiple committees and organizations. Her past research has included work on asteroids, Jupiter’s icy moon Europa, a balloon mission concept to Venus, and the geophysics and geochemistry of the Kuiper belt object Haumea.
