hi my name is miriam nasim and i am part

2
00:00:06,230 --> 00:00:04,160
of the production team for the ask an

3
00:00:07,430 --> 00:00:06,240
astrobiologist so as a visiting scholar

4
00:00:09,190 --> 00:00:07,440
at blue marble

5
00:00:11,350 --> 00:00:09,200
so this is a monthly live stream show

6
00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:11,360
where we bring on an astrobiologist

7
00:00:14,310 --> 00:00:12,480
scientist to talk about their

8
00:00:16,550 --> 00:00:14,320
professional journey their research and

9
00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:16,560
engage in a q a with the audience

10
00:00:19,510 --> 00:00:18,000
and today we're presenting the guest

11
00:00:21,510 --> 00:00:19,520
demographics and we encourage your

12
00:00:23,269 --> 00:00:21,520
feedback on how to improve this show

13
00:00:25,029 --> 00:00:23,279
so in terms of demographics looking at

14
00:00:27,029 --> 00:00:25,039
youtube episodes we've had around

15
00:00:28,150 --> 00:00:27,039
over 40 episodes and most of the guests

16
00:00:29,830 --> 00:00:28,160
were from academia

17
00:00:31,509 --> 00:00:29,840
when we look at just nasa affiliation

18
00:00:33,030 --> 00:00:31,519
most of them are from government looking

19
00:00:35,430 --> 00:00:33,040
at external affiliation

20
00:00:36,389 --> 00:00:35,440
again most of them are from academia

21
00:00:38,389 --> 00:00:36,399
looking at

22
00:00:40,389 --> 00:00:38,399
the primary discipline a majority of

23
00:00:42,069 --> 00:00:40,399
guests come from geosciences followed by

24
00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:42,079
astronomy and astrophysics and then

25
00:00:47,590 --> 00:00:44,640
planetary sciences in terms of

26
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:47,600
their subfield related to astrobiology

27
00:00:51,430 --> 00:00:49,360
they mostly do research on origins of

28
00:00:53,910 --> 00:00:51,440
life followed by habitable environments

29
00:00:55,750 --> 00:00:53,920
most of them in terms of viewership in

30
00:00:58,470 --> 00:00:55,760
the audience we're watching from the us

31
00:00:59,990 --> 00:00:58,480
followed by india we see that there is

32
00:01:01,590 --> 00:01:00,000
opportunity to expand guest

33
00:01:02,549 --> 00:01:01,600
representation beyond government and

34
00:01:04,390 --> 00:01:02,559
academia

35
00:01:06,390 --> 00:01:04,400
and majority of them were scientists we

36
00:01:07,350 --> 00:01:06,400
can bring on more engineers philosophers

37
00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:07,360
artists doing

38
00:01:10,710 --> 00:01:09,360
astrobiology research a lot of the

39
00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:10,720
research that we talked about was

40
00:01:13,750 --> 00:01:12,000
origins of life habitable

41
00:01:15,190 --> 00:01:13,760
environment and exoplanet science we can

42
00:01:16,469 --> 00:01:15,200
expand to other themes

43
00:01:18,390 --> 00:01:16,479
we want to continue our strong

44
00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:18,400
viewership trend and audience engagement

45
00:01:22,310 --> 00:01:19,920
we would love to hear your feedback
