Are aliens out there? Students will take on the role of astrobiologists as we discover the basic building blocks required for life to exist. We begin our safari on the only planet we know has life – Earth – by meeting animals living in the most extreme environments our planet has to offer. Then, we’ll blast off to explore where in space aliens could exist in the universe, from planets and moons in our own Solar System to mysterious exoplanets orbiting around distant stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.
