Professor of Planetary Science
Winner of BBC's 'Astronauts: Do You Have What it Takes'
High-altitude mountaineer and explorer

Professor Suzie Imber is a planetary scientist at the University of Leicester, where she focuses on the interaction of the solar wind with planets in our solar system, a field known as Space Weather. A leading researcher in the field, she is part of the international team working on the BepiColombo mission to Mercury. Suzie's journey is marked by her adventurous spirit and commitment to exploration. She has developed computer code that identifies previously uncharted mountains in the Andes and Himalayas, leading her to make first ascents in some of the world's most remote regions. Her collaboration with renowned mountaineer Maximo Kausch has resulted in the documentation of numerous high-altitude peaks. Her efforts have also uncovered historical sites, including Incan ruins, reflecting her deep interest in both scientific and geographical discovery. Suzie gained national recognition as the winner of the BBC series Astronauts: Do You Have What it Takes?, where she underwent rigorous astronaut selection processes under the guidance of Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield. This experience not only tested her physical and mental resilience but also provided her with unique stories and insights into the world of space exploration. Beyond her academic and adventurous pursuits, Suzie is actively involved in community service, volunteering with a mountain rescue team and a dog rescue centre. Her commitment to public engagement is evident through her numerous speaking engagements, where she shares her passion for space and exploration with diverse audiences. Suzie's achievements have been recognised with awards such as the Rosalind Franklin Award from the Royal Society, highlighting her contributions to science and her potential for future impact.
