The mission to Europa is still in the very preliminary stages. NASA scientist Cynthia Phillips is part of the NASA science team working on launching a project to Europa. There's good evidence of a liquid ocean underneath the icy crust, and with its warm planetary core, it might be our best bet to find alien life in our own solar system.
Blue Dot, named after Carl Sagan's famous speech about our place in the universe, features interviews with guests from all over the regional, national and worldwide scientific communities. Host Dave Schlom leads discussions about the issues science is helping us address with experts who shed light on climate change, space exploration, astronomy, technology and much more. Dave asks us to remember: from deep space, we all live on a pale, blue dot. Blue Dot is engineered, co-produced and co-hosted by Matt Shilts. It airs Thursdays at 10:30 a.m. and Fridays at 6:30 p.m.
