Dr Andrew Langendam

Beamline Scientist (XFM), ANSTO Australian Synchrotron

Andrew Langendam is a planetary scientist who studies the early formation process of small planets, and how planetary materials interact with the Earth environment once they have fallen.

Andrew also has significant experience organising meteorite collection and recovery expeditions in the Australian hot deserts. He has been involved in the recovery efforts of the Monash University Meteorite Recovery Team and through the Global Fireball Observatory.
