Where might we find life in the solar system? Intriguing possibilities include the watery plumes of Enceladus, the subsurface of Mars that might hold the remains of past life, and the methane seas of Titan that might have life different from any we know. In this lecture, Chris McKay, planetary scientist at NASA Ames Research Center, will discuss the ongoing search for life within our solar system.
The Exploring Space lectures are made possible by the generous support of Aerojet Rocketdyne and United Launch Alliance.
