SCI-L360 Planetary Science and Astrobiology Lab

This is the laboratory component of the course on Planetary Science and Astrobiology. We develop the scientific understanding of life in extreme environments and detection of life itself. With Mt. Teide volcano (Tenerife) as our laboratory, we will explore the evolution and emergence of life in new environments in context with astrophysical observations and biochemical principles that sustain life processes.
