How are planets formed; how do we know which theory is true? In this episode of Brains, Black Holes, and Beyond, Jovian Cheung sits down with Dr. Guðmundur Stefánsson (prior postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Astrophysics) and Dr. Vyshnavi Vennelakanti (prior postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering) to discuss new findings in planet formation research, as well as the importance of outreach and citizen science.
This episode of Brains, Black Holes, and Beyond (B-cubed) was produced under the 150th board of the Prince in partnership with the Insights newsletter.
