Space rocks from all over the world, including pristine material which has been collected directly from asteroids in our solar system is being analysed in Copenhagen by Professor Martin Bizzarro. He is Director of Center for Star and Planet Formation at University of Copenhagen and explains what we can learn from the material collected in space compared to meteorites on Earth. Will we have a space mining industry in the future? How old is our solar system really? Do we find traces of life on pristine asteroids in space?
