Talk Description

What’s going on in our solar system and beyond? That’s the mission of planetary scientist Amanda Hendrix and her team at the Planetary Science Institute. She and her colleagues study planets, moons and other small planetary bodies, using modeling, mapping, field work, lab work, space mission work and more.
