Magma Rheology, Lava Crystallization, Europan Cryolava & Lunar Regolith | Dr. Alan Whittington
Description
In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Alan Whittington, a research professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and director of the HAMsTER Lab at UTSA. Dr. Whittington specializes in studying heat and mass transfer and experimental rheology at extreme temperatures and pressures, which he and his team can create uniquely in their state-of-the-art laboratory.
