Video Title:
Exploring the Solar System with Antarctic Meteorites featuring Dr. Cari Corrigan
Description:
Meet Dr. Cari Corrigan, geologist at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History. Have you ever considered what meteorites reveal about our early solar system? A meteorite is a piece of rock that has come from far away in space and time. Cari analyzes meteorites that have landed in Antarctica to find evidence of the history of planets. See how the structure and composition of each meteorite is interpreted using modern laboratory techniques. Take a journey with Cari to Mars and back to get a new perspective on a planet that once had water like Earth. This video is part of the Smithsonian Science How webcast series and aligns with national science standards.
