#32 Searching for New Earths with Dr. Ana Heras


Listen Later

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Ana Heras, Project Scientist for the European Space Agency’s PLATO mission. PLATO is a space telescope designed to find Earth-like planets around distant stars and help us understand which of them might be habitable.

Dr. Heras shares how the mission works, what makes it special, and what it takes to prepare for a mission like this. We also talk about her journey into space science, international teamwork, and the exciting question: Are we alone in the universe?

This episode is perfect for anyone curious about planets, space exploration, or how scientists search for new Earths beyond our Solar System.
