Space rocks can either K*ll us or give us access to another habitable world in outer space. Geologists from Stellenbosch University and a mechanical engineer tell us what they are up to when studying asteroids and other non-celestial objects.
They are Prof Nawaz Mahomed of the Department of Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering, and Dr Matthew Mayne and MSc student Llelani Coetzer from the Department of Earth Sciences.
Venue: Stellenbosch University Conservatorium Amphitheater, Victoria Street, Stellenbosch
