Exploring the Planets with Our 5 Senses
October 24 @ 7:30 PM - 8:30 PM
$25.00
In this series, our stellar speakers will explore the origins of the universe, the colonization of space, interplanetary travel, and the latest cosmic discoveries. Tickets are available for individual events or the whole series.
Our ancestors experienced the five classical planets of our solar system only as points of light in the night sky. Today, we know these places as worlds in their own right. In “Exploring the Planets with Our 5 Senses”, presenter Dr. John Moores will take us on a tour of the solar system to understand what it would be like to see, hear, touch, smell and even taste in the environments of our planetary neighbours.
Dr. Moores holds the York Research Chair in Space Exploration at York University. He was a Participating Scientist on NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover mission, and contributed to missions to Saturn’s moon Titan and the Martian Arctic.
