Moonrise: The Surprisingly Diverse Array of Moons in our Solar System
Dr. Bonnie Meinke, Space Telescope Science Institute
Earth’s Moon is so familiar to us, yet there are hundreds of other moons in our solar system that still remain exotic. Take a journey from our Moon to the weird and wonderful collection of moons across interplanetary space. Explore volcanoes, oceans, and clouds that make these distant worlds much more recognizable than one might have guessed. And consider how these familiar geologic features could create ideal conditions for life to take hold and flourish!
