8th Grade Life Science paeticipates in "So You Want To Be A Martian?"

As NASA prepares for humans’ first steps on Mars in the 2030’s, it is important to understand fact versus fiction about living on Mars. This morning Bancroft-Rosalie Life Science students participated in NASA Kennedy Space Center's Journey to Mars Education Event called “So You Want to Be a Martian.” A curated panel discussion with Kennedy Space Center Director Bob Cabana, NASA’s Planetary Science Director, a NASA astronaut, a NASA botanist, and two stars from the movie “The Martian” presented using NASA’s Digital Learning Network.

Schools had the opportunity to submit a question to be used during the panel discussion. Unfortunately our question was not selected.
