Dr. Shields answers your questions from our Patreon members. If life does exist in our solar system which planet or moon do you think offers the most promising location? Dr. Shields: Europa is Jupiter a moon of Jupiter would be my top. Saturn's moon in celitis has geysers that are shooting out from its south pole. Can't argue with Geysers.
If scientists discovered that we are not alone, what would they do with that information? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice learn about the search for life, habitability around M stars and more with astrophysics professor and author Aomawa Shields.
