Space. The Final Frontier...

Space. The Final frontier… a friend of mine asked me if there is chemistry in space and how it is different from the chemistry, we observe here on Earth. This is an exciting topic. So exciting that I had to make a podcast episode about it. If you would like to share feedback or have a suggestion for a topic, I can now be reached on twitter under @ChemistryinEve1. Alternatively, you can send an email to [email protected]. Please note: I made a mistake in this episode. I called the analytical method “nucleor magnetic resonance spectroscopy” accidentally “nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry”. I apologise for this error.
