probe. Only in the past three decades has asteroseismology, the study of stellar oscillations, allowed us to peer through stellar atmospheres and probe the insides of stars. It is therefore the only method that allows the determination of a star&#8217;s mass, radius, and age based on its interior properties. I will discuss how we measure the vibrations of stars like our Sun and what we can learn about the lifetimes of such stars. Asteroseismology is emerging as a powerful tool in modern astronomy for studying the history of our Galaxy and for revealing new discoveries about planets outside our Solar System. This is now made possible by our ability to survey millions of stars across the sky from NASA\u2019s space telescopes, as well as the growing influence of machine learning and AI in astronomy. I will showcase discoveries in Galactic archaeology and exoplanetary science, along with exploring the potential of AI in the survey era of asteroseismology.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cc0e8c7\" data-id=\"cc0e8c7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb97e6a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"eb97e6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"254\" height=\"342\" src=\"https:\/\/www.physics.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/01\/Marc-Hon-pic.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-34407\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.physics.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/01\/Marc-Hon-pic.jpg 254w, https:\/\/www.physics.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/01\/Marc-Hon-pic-223x300.jpg 223w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 254px) 100vw, 254px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-50bcd86 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"50bcd86\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-eba1096\" data-id=\"eba1096\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4799f90 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4799f90\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"160\" height=\"175\" src=\"https:\/\/www.physics.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/01\/MarcHon1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-34415\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-97e1ead\" data-id=\"97e1ead\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dc27915 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dc27915\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Biography<\/h4><p>Marc is an astronomer whose research interests lie at the intersection of stellar physics, Milky Way studies, exoplanetary science, and machine learning.
