Astrobiology in the Field, Episode 1: Iceland

The NASA Astrobiology Program presents Astrobiology in the Field, Episode 1: Iceland, created by Mike Toillion.

This expedition is the first installment in a brand new NASA Astrobiology video documentary series, entitled Astrobiology in the Field. This series aims to showcase the amazing analogue environments and the interesting field work being conducted all over the world by NASA scientists; work that directly informs NASA missions to discover extraterrestrial life in the Universe.

This episode follows team FELDSPAR: the Field Exploration and Life Detection Sampling for Planetary and Astrobiology Research. Led by Georgia Institute of Technology’s Dr. Amanda Stockton, and funded by the NASA Astrobiology’s PSTAR program, team FELDSPAR is investigating the distribution of life amongst fresh lava fields in the volcanically-active regions of Iceland.
