Question
Do you have any resources that a teacher could use to have students create a mock-biodome on a planet such as Mars?
Unfortunately, no; we do not have any such student resources at NASA. However, you can check out the following classroom activity at PBS kids for making a mini-biodome at: http://pbskids.org/zoom/sci/biodome.html For some fantastic NASA science education resources for the classroom and at home, please see the following website at: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/OEP/NASASciResources.htm Anna Lee Strachan, NASA Astrobiology Institute
