2. TERC Astrobiology
TERC and NASA are developing an interdisciplinary, year-long course for middle and high school students using astrobiology as its unifying, underlying structure.
http://astrobio.terc.edu/
Is there life elsewhere in the universe?
What is life's future on Earth and beyond?
How did life originate on Earth?
Your questions may be more down to Earth, like: What are the benefits of teaching Astrobiology? The Astrobiology curriculum was conceived, developed, and written by leading educators and classroom teachers with the participation of NASA and with funding from the National Science Foundation. Each chapter of the course has been field tested by dozens of teachers and thousands of students.The curriculum will be available in July 2005.

Astrobiology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For the journal, see Astrobiology (journal) Nucleic acids may not be the only biomolecules in the Universe capable of coding for life Astrobiology is the study of the origin, evolution , distribution, and future of life in the universe . Earth is the only known inhabited planet in the universe to date. However, advancements in the fields of astrobiology, observational astronomy and discovery of large varieties of extremophiles with extraordinary capability to thrive in the harshest environments on Earth, have led to speculation that life may possibly be thriving on many of the extraterrestrial bodies in the universe. This interdisciplinary field encompasses the search for habitable environments in our Solar System and habitable planets outside our Solar System, the search for evidence of prebiotic chemistry , laboratory and field research into the origins and early evolution of life on Earth , and studies of the potential for life to adapt to challenges on Earth and in outer space Astrobiology makes use of physics chemistry astronomy biology ... geography and geology to investigate the possibility of life on other worlds and help recognize biospheres that might be different from the biosphere on Earth.

. She concludes: "a great reference source for budding scientists in late elementary and early middle school. Bortz has hit a home run with this one."
Sets of paperbacks are available from Lerner Classroom
. Search for Astrobiology when you get to the site. Back cover summary:
Are we alone in the universe? Is Earth the only suitable planet for life? These questions motivate astrobiologists, scientists who search for life in the universe. Astrobiologists compare life on Earth to signs of life on other planets. They test meteorites for alien bacteria. They collect soil and atmospheric samples from other planets. They study space mission photographs. And they listen for signals from alien civilizations on enormous radio dishes. Learn all about astrobiologists' amazing research in this fast-paced peek into the future of science.

Astrobiology has emerged as a new science for the new millennium. It seeks to understand life in the context of the wider cosmos. The new Centre will continue in the pioneering traditions of astrobiology started in Cardiff over 25 years ago, taking note of the many relevant discoveries that have been made in recent years. The Centre aims to combine the expertise of astronomers, biochemists and microbiologists to generate cutting edge science that would eventually enable us to answer the age-old question: where did we come from?
