Time for our second event! Let’s learn about exoplanets 👀 Answering some big questions: how do we find them, what do we know about them, and what’s coming next in exoplanet science?

In between these talks, you’ll get to hear from Dr. Jamie Dietrich about the diversity of over the 5000 exoplanets we know of today! Plus, we will show you how to detect exoplanets with hands on activities. Hope to see you there! (3/3)
