Jonti Horner
Professor (Astrophysics), University of Southern Queensland
Jonti is an astronomer and astrobiologist based at the University of Southern Queensland, in Toowoomba, Queensland.
They first became interested in astronomy as a five-year-old, as a result of viewing an accidentally recorded episode of the Sky at Night.
Jonti has always been particularly interested in the Solar system, especially the small objects therein - the comets, asteroids and meteors.
In recent years, they've been expanding their research to include astrobiology and the search for, and study of, exoplanets.
