The Space and Planetary Science Group investigates the formation, evolution, and dynamics of planetary systems, from their deep interiors and surfaces to their atmospheres and potential for hosting life. The Space and Planetary Science Research Group focuses on advancing our understanding of planetary systems, their interiors, surfaces, cryospheres, and atmospheres. Our interdisciplinary research brings together expertise in astrobiology, atmospheres, cryospheres, geo- and paleo-magnetism, geodynamics and tectonics, impact and shock processes, meteoritics, mineral physics, remote sensing, and volcanology. We study a diverse array of planetary bodies, including Earth and the Moon, Mars, Venus, and exoplanets, to explore their formation, evolution, and current dynamics. Our work investigates fundamental questions about planetary surfaces, the behavior of materials under extreme conditions, the history and structure of magnetic fields, and the potential for life in extreme environments. We aim to uncover the processes that shape planetary systems and interactions with their surrounding environments using cutting-edge experiments, remote sensing, fieldwork, and computational modeling,.
