Worlds Revealed Speaker Series
The Fates of Planetary Systems with Dr. Taylor Kutra
Have you ever wondered what happens to planets like Earth after their sun reaches the end of its life cycle? The outlook is bleak—but there is evidence that some planetary material, from asteroids to comets and even full-fledged planets, can survive this tumultuous period.
In this talk, Lowell postdoctoral fellow Dr. Taylor Kutra will talk about the challenges faced by Earth-like planets when their stars begin to die, and show the evidence that in some cases, planets can survive.
