Pre-Service and In-Service Teachers,
and Undergraduate Science Majors interested in teaching K-12,
will be studying side-by-side with world-renowned planetary scientists
who search for life in extreme environments.
Why the Mojave – an inhospitable,
parched, sun-drenched, spot in southern California? This natural
setting present scientists with opportunities to study environments
that are analogous to what explorers will find on the Moon
and Mars. Teachers, students and scientists perform scientific
fieldwork in lunar geology, Mars astrobiology, Mars geology,
and issues of temperature and solar inundation and radation.
