Exoplanets & Petrology
Exoplanetary science is the literal next frontier for space geologists like me. So many unanswered questions; "Are other planets and solar systems similar to ours"? "What do plate tectonics look like outside of our solar system"? "What happens if you vary the amount of iron or magnesium that's available when planets are forming"? "Will that planet's mineralogy and geology be different from bodies in our solar system"?
I'm part of an interdisciplinary team building the petrology foundations that we need to be able to answer big questions like these . Learn more below!
