Life: Here? There? Elsewhere? The Search for Life on Venus and Mars
Grade Level: 5-8
Body: Venus, Mars
Short Description: Students investigate the phenomena of life through activities that introduce them to the multidisciplinary sciences of planetology and exobiology. Simulating Venusian and Martian conditions, they explore various means of detecting life in the atmosphere and soils of Earth. They use their findings to propose a spacecraft design for life detection on Venus and Mars.

Mars Exploration - Is There Water on Mars? - #1: How Hot Can You Make Water?
Grade Level: 9-12
Body: Mars
Short Description: PP. 1-6. Students become aware of their preconceptions by considering how how they could heat water. They then test their preconceived ideas by heating water and measuring its temperature. At some point near 100 degrees Celsius, students find that the water temperature no longer rises. They graph the data and try to make sense of the temperature plateau. Note: This is a 105 page PDF.
