Toxic Titan. Wednesday March 1 at 7pm in Gira CCIT 397 (above the planetarium). Free and ticketless.

This is a virtual presentation by Johns Hopkins astronomer Dr. Sarah Horst. Dr. Horst is a member of the team leading NASA's Dragonfly mission to the surface of Saturn's largest moon, Titan. Titan is unique in our solar system. Below Titan's thick organic haze layer, rivers of methane carve channels into an icy bedrock and flow into large hydrocarbons seas. Across the landscape, water ice mountains and extensive organic sand dune fields are simultaneously alien and reminiscent of Earth. Titan’s lake mottled surface and thick, organic rich atmosphere may be an ideal setting for life as we do not know it and there is certainly much yet to be learned about our own home from the study of Titan.
