Cosmic Shores: Exploring Alien Worlds on Earth
Iceland, Chile, Namibia, Australia
Planetary science is more than an academic pursuit; it is marked by artistic expression, physical hardship, and a deep emotional connection to the world. During my Watson year I will visit the other-worldy landscapes of Iceland, Namibia, Chile, and Australia to understand astrophysics and planetary science, but also the art and emotion of these topics in order to shape my larger pursuits in planetary exploration.
