Mar 25th: Rockin’ all over the World
This month @cosmicsavannah take a deep dive into how a planet (in this case Earth) is constructed and learned about how precious metals and diamonds are created and moved through the Earth’s crust also how planets create the building blocks for life, and how life, in turn, helps to create the minerals we find on Earth!
Feb 25th: How to Train Your Galaxy
Today @cosmicsavannah discus about how to recreate the formation of galaxies inside a supercomputer with Dr. Rob Yates as he explains how he uses semi-analytic simulations to try and understand how various elements are created and dispersed around galaxies.
