GeoOnsdag: Bringing rocks from Mars to Earth – why, how and are we ready for it?

Welcome to the talk Bringing rocks from Mars to Earth – why, how and are we ready for it?, by geologist and planetary scientist at Department of Geosciences Agata Krzesinska. We live in exciting times for space exploration when one of Humanity's most ambitious desires is becoming reality. Since February 2021, the Perseverance rover has been exploring Mars, analysing rocks and searching for evidence of past or present martian life hidden in geological record. Unlike previous rovers, Perseverance is drilling into the martian surface to prepare small samples for the first-ever return to Earth. These samples will enable scientists to study Mars in ways previously unimaginable... But it is a long way ahead before we are sure we are ready to work with them. Agata Krzesinska is a geologist and planetary scientist at the University of Oslo. She specializes in studies of meteorites that give insights into Earth's formation and early evolution. Her research includes examining martian meteorites to understand the formation of martian volcanoes and the presence of water on Mars. She currently serves on a NASA-ESA committee tasked to define an optimized sequence of scientific investigations on the future returned martian samples. Additionally, she curates a collection of terrestrial rocks analogous to those to-be-returned from Mars, which is crucial to run engineering and technology tests. ___________________________ Once a month, researchers at the Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo, will tell about their research and introduce the geociences to a wide audience, from first-year undergraduates, colleagues to interested in general. It is possible to ask questions after the lectures. Coffee/tea are served. Everyone is welcome! https://www.ub.uio.no/english/courses...
