National Astronomy Week online presentation: The history and future of Mars space exploration
Sunday 9th February 2025 from 20:00pm to 21:00pm
In celebration of National Astronomy Week 2025, enjoy this free online presentation by Dr Catherine Regan titled “The history and future of Mars space exploration”.
As Mars rides high in the sky, Dr Catherine Regan of West Virginia University tells us about the history and future of Mars space exploration.
We have been looking up towards the red planet for thousands of years and now it is the most explored planetary body after Earth. Our knowledge has excelled, with landers, rovers and satellites continuously sending data back down for scientists across the world to work on.
The next decade sees even more missions launching towards Mars to help us answer the questions we still don’t have the answers to. What happened to Mars’ atmosphere? Where did the water go? Can we find life on Mars?
Watch the presentation live via the National Astronomy Week YouTube channel.
