Are we alone in the Universe? Is there life beyond Earth?
How can we search for evidence of life in our Solar System and beyond? These questions motivate people to learn about our natural world, and are at the core of our Center for Education. The Center promotes STEM education through NASA- and NSF-funded programs aimed at teaching and inspiring children, young adults and educators with emphasis on space sciences and astrobiology.
