Astrobiology List

1 NASA Center for Computational Astrobiology

http://cca.arc.nasa.gov/

NASA research center uses computational and theoretical techniques to study the fundamental nature of life through astrobiology, a combination of biology, astronomy, and other sciences, which is unlocking secrets that will lead to a better understanding of the origins, evolution and distribution of life in the universe. Life is a central theme that unifies NASAs vision and mission. A golden age has begun, an age in which science and technology will benefit enormously from a fundamental

Bringing diverse areas of expertise together to achieve new science and to expand current interactions between Tulane Medical Center and NASA in the field of astrobiology. Astrobiology is the study of life in the universe. One aspect of this includes the effects of space travel upon the human body as well as the use of microgravity to study basic biological phenomena.

5 Astrobiology Answers

Speculates on answers of some of the tough questions asked by Astrobiologists like "Is there life elsewhere in the universe, what is lifes future on Earth and how did life originate on the Earth?". TERC has developed a middle and high school curriculum that stimulates student learning and participation with intriguing questions and illuminating activities. Includes a series of hands-on activities, students explore diverse concepts in chemistry, physics, biology, and Earth and space scie

6 Caltech - Geobiology Astrobiology

Department, a joint venture with JPL, presents its course schedule, faculty profiles, and images from staff experiments and research projects. Geobiology is the use of information preserved in and by the biosphere to attack problems of importance for understanding the geological evolution of the Earth. The interaction of life with the earth works in two directions: life has had an enormous impact on the chemical and physical evolution of this planet, and in turn, global changes in the s
