Scientific paper

Astrobiology is the discipline connecting Earth and space science. The study of life beyond Earth requires core research on the origin and evolution of life as we know it with Earth being the only example. From extremophiles to the oldest known fossil life and microbial life around the planet, Astrobiology brings excitement to these areas of basic research because it provides context for new information and leads to thoughts about the nature of life and human existence. The NASA Astrobiology Institute (NAI) brings astrobiology to students, teachers, and the public in many ways. In everything from our "Ask An Astrobiologist" resource to graduate courses for teachers, and museum exhibits and IMAX films, NAI connects earth and space science. With sixteen research teams around the country, each conducting Education and Public Outreach projects, NAI is one of NASA's most visible junctures between Earth and space science.
