They include both brief presentations highlighting university research and engaging hands-on activities. They are suitable for adults and children, ages 5 and up. In this demonstration, discover how scientists search for life on other planets. Through experimentation, you will learn about the field of astrobiology and re-evaluate the definition of ‘life’.
