New Astrobiology TV Documentary Features NAI Scientists
NAI scientists and their international partners were featured in a new documentary called “Looking for Life” which premiered this week on both PBS and NASA-TV. The program highlights cutting edge field work in the arid Western Australian desert, an acid river in Spain, high altitude lakes in the Bolivian Andes, and the permafrost within an old gold mine in the Canadian Arctic where astrobiologists are characterizing the unique habitats and survival mechanisms of life on Earth, and laying the groundwork for the search for life on other planets.
For more information about the program, see http://passporttoknowledge.com/life/. Check your local PBS listings and the NASA TV schedule for viewing times. Educational resources supporting the program from NASA Learning Technologies are available at http://www.quest.arc.nasa.gov/vft/.
