Description:
Explore the fascinating intersection of data science and lunar exploration in this 51-minute Microsoft video. Dive into the world of moon missions, both fictional and real, as Dr. G draws inspiration from Netflix's "Over the Moon" and NASA's Apollo missions. Learn how to analyze and clean data to predict moon rock collection for the upcoming Artemis Program. Follow along with hands-on Python coding in Visual Studio Code, using pandas to manipulate and explore NASA's Lunar Rock Curation data. Discover the importance of weight in space exploration, create dataframes to compare missions, and determine optimal sample collection strategies. No prior coding experience required. Gain valuable insights into data-driven decision-making for space exploration and leave with practical recommendations for future lunar missions.
