• Key findings of the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter after almost four full Mars-years of observations

  05 June 2024, 13:00 - 14:00

  The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter was launched in 2016 to make a detailed study the atmosphere of Mars with the key objective of searching for as-yet undetected trace gases diagnostic of active biological or geological processes. It successfully reached Martian orbit in the fall of 2016 and began its nominal...

• Exploring Solar System atmospheres from space and in the numerical laboratory

  27 March 2024, 13:00 - 14:00

  We understand the atmospheres of the other planets in the Solar System primarily from observations made by spacecraft, alongside a hierarchy of numerical models. These models test ideas in the absence of complete or regular observations, which are quite limited for many other planets. There is a particularly important role...
