Talking with Martians: A panel on red-planet research

Erin Gibbons, Debarati Das, Richard Léveillé (McGill University)

Sep 22, 2021 7:00 PM
Livestream

For our first event of the Fall, we are excited to bring you a panel with three McGill Researchers who study our fascinating neighbor, Mars!

Come and hear the exciting work that Erin Gibbons, Debarati Das, and Richard Léveillé do related to Mars, its habitability, and the high-tech robots that we land on its surface!

You have questions? They have answers! This will be an interactive event where you will be able to ask questions and have the panelists discuss them at length.

We also strongly encourage to ask questions in advance! Any question related to Mars, ask here.

The event will take place over Zoom and be livestreamed to our Youtube page.
