INTERVIEWER: Today as part of MIT's Infinite History project we're talking with professor Sara Seager, the MIT Class of 1941 Professor of Planetary Science and Physics. Professor Seager, you joined the MIT faculty in 2007 to lead MIT's efforts in the emerging subfield of exoplanet exploration and characterization-- exoplanets being planets Sara Seager's current research interests are focused upon the discovery and characterization of exoplanets. She has two main goals: the discovery of another Earth and the search for signs of life beyond Earth. Thousands of exoplanets are known to exist with exoplanet atmospheres now a firmly established field of research.
