Explore Exoplanets: The Discoverers; Ep. 3 Jennifer Burt (part 1)

Planet Detection All Night, Every Night 🧛🔭🌃🪐
IPAC's Dr. Jessie Christiansen chats with Dr. Jennifer Burt of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory on how she splits starlight into rainbows (a.k.a. Extreme Precision Radial Velocity) to study exoplanets, which of the six planets she's discovered (so far) is her favorite, and why she prefers fictional planets in fantasy novels over those in science fiction.⚔️
