Join CST's Associate Director and Astrophysicist, Erin Flowers, Princeton Research Scholar Jamey Szalay, and Princeton Alumni and NASA film makers Elizabeth Landau ‘06 and James Tralie ’19 for this special screening and Q&A session.

Other Worlds: Europa 
On Earth, where there is liquid water, there is life. Jupiter’s moon Europa has a liquid water ocean underneath its icy crust. Go behind the scenes with scientists as they explore Europa with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and prepare for the launch of the Europa Clipper mission.

Other Worlds: Titan
Titan, a moon of Saturn, is the only object in the solar system besides Earth with liquid on its surface, making it relevant for the search for life beyond Earth. But instead of water, methane and ethane make up Titan’s rivers and seas. Join scientists as they explore Titan with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and develop the forthcoming Dragonfly mission, which will send an octocopter to this fascinating moon.
