We've now discovered over 7000 planets around other stars, there is one question that keeps coming up... Do any of them have life on them? 

Join Dr Simon Goodwin from the School of Maths and Physical Sciences for this fascinating online taster session, where they'll discuss finding planets, and how we're only just starting to look for life on these once undiscovered areas of the universe.

There will also be an opportunity to speak with a current Physics student, learning about their experiences whilst studying at the University of Sheffield.
