Meet François Forget, a planetary scientist at the Laboratoire de Météo Dynamique in Paris. François is an atmospheric dynamicist: he and his team model other planetary atmospheres including Mars, Titan and exoplanets.

In this second episode, I asked François whether he thinks we will get to see a man go on Mars in our lifetime. What processes and challenges would this involve? What are the upcoming projects in terms of space exploration? François will also draw a parallel between space and Antarctica missions (he did spend time in Antarctica this year). The personality of people who live in a confined space in a hostile environment may well be the most important factor in a mission and the survival of its members.
Part of François’s work consists of modelling the environment of other planets: What are the scientific / practical applications of it? How can this help us understand our very own planet?
The interview will end with the eye-opening, terrifying projection of what changes planet Earth is facing due to global warming. It’s time to act NOW!!

A huge thank you to Mike W. for putting me in touch with François! If you too know someone who could make a great guest on the podcast, please introduce us!
