A Conversation with the Stars
Our Solar System is vast and varied. From the sulfuric acid rains of Venus, to the sulfur spewing volcanos of Io, to the sulfate-rich ice shell of Europa, there exists a tremendous diversity of chemical and geologic activity. GCCs own astrochemist, Dr. Corey Jamieson, will explore with you the chemistry of the Solar System, focusing on Europa, the smallest of the Galilean moons of Jupiter. Europa isnt just a pretty name: It is an intriguing body, due of course, to its abundance of liquid water. This indicates a potential for habitability, which naturally excites the imaginations of sci-fi lovers everywhere. The upcoming Europa Clipper mission (coming to a launchpad near you in the early 2020s) will further studies of Europa's composition and geology. So come and join us in the planetarium to converse about the finer details of the Solar System.
