Space Hazards

Asteroids, Solar Flares and Cosmic Threats Facing Earth

Beschreibung

Earth is not isolated in space but surrounded by an array of potentially hazardous objects within our own solar system and beyond. Although none of these provide an immediate threat to life, it is the work of scientists around the world to continue monitoring their presence, potential risks and how to minimize these.

Autor

Dr. Ryan French is a solar physicist, science communicator and author. He is pursuing the mysteries of the Sun at the forefront of modern solar physics research, using cutting edge telescopes on the ground and in space. His research takes him all over the world, collaborating with the global community of solar physicists. Ryan also works to share the wonders of the Sun and space with the public, through social media, museums and observatories, and on television and radio. He is also an avid hiker, rock climber, and skier, perhaps because the mountains take him closer to the Sun. Keep up to date with Ryan's other projects at www.ryanjfrench.com
