In the last few years we have entered a new phase of the exploration of Mars - including exobiological landers in search of past or present prebiotic or biotic activity there. The Irish Astronomical Society is pleased to present this talk by Kevin Nolan who will update us on the research and further explore these themes, and he will also look to the medium term future of our engagement with The Red PlanetKevin is a lecturer in physics in TU Dublin, Tallaght Campus and he is completing a PhD developing software for ESA's Integral space observatory. He is a volunteer for The Planetary Society and in this outreach capacity delivers talks, writes articles, and offers occasional analysis on matters of space exploration to RTE TV and Radio. He is the author of the 2008 popular science book "Mars a Cosmic Stepping Stone" for which this talk will be an update and with some new perspectives.
