An 51勛圖厙 researcher talks about meteorites, their life-giving gases, and exo-planets in an audio interview.

Dr Richard Court, from the Department of Earth Science and Engineering, discusses his research on meteorites and how they can deliver important gases to kick-start life on planets. He also explains how they can release gases that can give off misleading signals to scientists searching for signs of life on distant worlds.
