Description:

Earth isn’t the only place in our solar system with oceans, but these oceans aren’t quite what you’re used to here on our home planet. Join Julie Castillo-Rogez from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory was she presents on the distribution of oceans across the outer solar system, like those around Jupiter and Uranus. She will discuss what these oceans are made of and how we plan to explore them with ongoing and future missions! Julie Castillo-Rogez is a planetary scientist specializing in water-rich objects from modeling and experimental perspectives applied to the formulation, design, and planning of planetary missions. Her current activities focus on dwarf planet Ceres, the exploration of small bodies with small spacecraft, and the formulation of reactive missions to long-period comets.
