FameLab Astrobiology 2012 Houston: Britney Schmidt
This is a great hangout from SETI that happened Dec 13th, and featured Britney Schmidt from Georgia Institute of Technology (man she's been busy!), +Cynthia Phillips and +Franck Marchis from the Carl Sagan Center of the SETI Institute. They talked about recent discoveries at Jupiter's moon Europa.
In this Hangout from NASA, Britney Schmidt (Georgia Institute of Technology) and Julie Castillo-Rogez (Jet Propulsion Laboratory) discuss Dawn's mission to mysterious Ceres.
Britney Schmidt's name came up in a post just two days ago about Europa - and here she is again with her work on Ceres (a dwarf planet in the asteroid belt). Britney is the science team liaison for NASA's Dawn mission EPO team. Dawn is on its way to Ceres, and will arrive in early 2015.
"Ceres is very different and very exciting in a lot of ways, totally different from any place that we've been. It may be the only primarily icy planet that's out there, at least within reach."- Britney Schmidt, Dawn team hangout.

Astrobiology Magazine recently featured a very important study on Europa that could shape the future of robotic exploration at the Jovian moon. First author on the study was Krista Soderlund, a postdoc at the University of Texas at Austin. She and her colleagues (including Dr. Britney Schmidt, who we've featured previously) have shown that Europa's global, subsurface ocean could experience currents that circulate around the moon's equator.
Warm water carried by the currents freezes and is pushed up into the icy shell, possibly reaching the surface. This process creates visible chaos terrains at the surface, and could mean that samples of water from the ocean (and any signs of life it contains) might be accessible to robotic missions on the moon's surface.
Anyone interested in the search for life in the subsurface ocean of Europa should check it out.
Want to hear some cool science words? How's this: Soderlund's work focuses geophysical fluid dynamics, cryosphere physics, planetary physics, and magnetohydrodynamics!
Ceres is like the gatekeeper to the history of water in the middle solar system.

On Thursday, August 15, Britney Schmidt, science team liaison for NASA's Dawn Mission, and Julie Castillo-Rogez, planetary scientist from JPL, spoke in a Google+ Hangout titled 'Ceres: Icy World Revealed?' about the growing excitement related to the icy dwarf planet Ceres.
When the Dawn mission investigates Ceres in 2015, it may find more than scientists originally expected.
