Manage episode 443381830 series 3491325
Could the swirling dust storms on Mars impact on space exploration? Could a theory on the origins of life on Earth reveal if there has ever been life on Mars, and how do you get a probe to a small, fast moving, far distant asteroid? If you think space exploration is over your head – you are in the right place!
