Chemistry 2050 | Space
This year, the CSR will host a series of webinars and a workshop guided by the central theme of Chemistry 2050 across a range of intersectional chemistry topics. The series will explore how the chemical sciences discipline will journey through a quarter-of-a-century of science. This series will provide a forum that explores and anticipates how the discipline could look in the year 2050.
Join us for the first Chemistry 2050 webinar on Monday, April 14, from 12:00pm to 2:00pm which details the chemistry in space in 2050. The webinar will feature a moderated discussion with expert panelists exploring how advances in astrochemistry intersect with our understanding of the origins of solar systems and future space travel missions. Our current panelists, Jennifer Bergner (University of California - Berkley), Jason Dworkin (NASA), and Sara Seager (MIT) will highlight the formation of planets in tandem with stars, the possible molecular origins of life, the remarkable chemistry of the atmospheres of exoplanets and the methods of exploring our solar system.
