Wed 7 October 2015
Fitzwilliam College
This talk is based on some of the recent studies of the earth's atmosphere so as to detect the presence of viruses and bacteria at heights of 41 kms above sea level. The outcome could have profound implications for ideas about the origins of life on the earth.
Professor Jayant V Narlikar, Emeritus Professor at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Pune, India (and Fitzwilliam College
alumnus) will talk about his experiences researching this extraordinary topic.
