Join us for Strange Sessions (think Tiny Desk concerts meets TED), where visionary thinkers & scientists explore groundbreaking ideas shaping our future.
In this edition, former NASA aerospace engineer Alex Kling discusses how experiments like harvesting atmospheric energy for airborne Mars exploration & deploying nano-particles to trap heat could help make Mars more livable.
While full planetary environmental enhancement for Mars would span multiple centuries, the right technology could unlock radical possibilities. Discover how these bold ideas could change how we think about life on Earth & beyond.
