Science Under the Stars
Come to the Planetarium for this free talk!
Guest speaker Dr. Mariah MacDonald covers what it means for a planet to be habitable and how to use the dynamics of planets to study their composition, formation, and evolution.
Astrobiology seeks to understand how planets can support life and seeks to constrain the frequency of habitable planets. Current estimates suggest that nearly 10% of Sun-like stars host rocky planets in their habitable zones and that the Milky Way alone hosts an average of 0.35 Earth-like planets per star.
