On June 5th at 19:00 in Lisbon astronomer and science communicator Vladimir Surdin will deliver a fascinating lecture about the search for extraterrestrial life!

Did you know that the most promising places to search for life beyond Earth and to build extraterrestrial habitats are caves on planets, their moons, asteroids, and comets? 🌌

— Why are caves considered suitable for life?
— Could this be the next frontier in space colonization?
— How does the presence of water in caves increase the chances of finding life?
— Why don’t we yet have robots capable of exploring these mysterious depths?

Vladimir Surdin will share new, unconventional ideas for studying cosmic undergrounds and explain how they could influence the future of space colonization.

After the lecture:
— Q&A session (ask your most intriguing questions!)
— Autograph session with an opportunity to purchase Vladimir’s books
