TEACHERS:
Launch Real Space Science in Your Classroom

In an era of AI, the ultimate competitive advantage is Human Intelligence: grit, agency, and critical thinking that machines can't replicate.

ExoLab-13 invites your students to conduct authentic mycological research, comparing classroom experiments with fungi grown on the historic Fram2 private astronaut mission.

Equip your students to move beyond simulations and tackle real-world biological ambiguity through ExoLab-13. By joining this mission, they serve as active researchers as we imagine how food and recycling will be essential for the first lunar research station.

The journey to the Moon starts in your classroom. With less tha 30 days until mission start, secure your spot in the ExoLab-13 cohort today.

One of our planet’s unique properties not known to exist anywhere else in our solar system - living soil. What else might we discover in the search for diverse life here on the home world?

Hundreds of new bacteria, and two potential antibiotics, found in soil - News Most bacteria cannot be cultured in the lab—and that’s been bad news for medicine. Many of our frontline antibiotics originated from microbes, yet as antibiotic resistance spreads and drug pipelines run dry, the soil beneath our feet has a vast hidden reservoir of untapped lifesaving compounds. ...

What's coming next? For those of you that have been involved in the ExoLab network of science labs - a new mission will be introduced soon!

As we get ready to release our next experience, we're headed back to Australia next week to celebrate and share our work at the International Astronautical Congress. We will be presenting 2 papers and supporting a third:

1) Seeds of Discovery: ExoLab's Global Inquiry Pedagogy Connecting K-12 Students with Space Research

2) Computer Vision Enabled Analysis of Medicago truncatula in Microgravity and classrooms around the world (ExoLab 11 on the ISS)

3) Expanding STEM Engagement Through Space Research: The AVA Challenge

If you are in Sydney, let's find time to connect and share!
