Becoming Martian: How Living in Space Will Change Our Bodies and Minds

An in-person lecture at The Explorers Club about the surprising effects of living in space on the human body and mind. Evolutionary biologist, professor, and science communicator Scott Solomon leads a discussion on what planned outposts on the Moon and Mars could mean for their occupants and descendants. He asks whether children born on other worlds could return to Earth, and whether future generations might adapt and evolve into a new species, challenging the very definition of what it means to be human.
