For any Natural Science you gotta invert the world to figure out what happened way back and why things even exist like they do now.
Welcome
Being born in the last millennium, probably makes me an older soul (I'm just kidding ;-). I have spent the first 23 years of my life in my hometown of Kolkata, India.
I went to school at Calcutta Boys' School and university at Presidency University; all within a 2 mile radius.
So, moving to UChicago for a PhD in Planetary Science at the Origins Laboratory with Prof. Nicolas Dauphas was an experience in itself and a breath of fresh air..........
Goals
Understand why Mars, Martian moons and nearby rubble pile asteroids exist as they do.
