Life on the Edge: Free Family Day

Explore extreme environments on Earth and how they help us understand possibilities for life in our Solar System and beyond. In this hands-on exhibition, visitors will discover that life is hidden in plain sight by exploring a colorful microbial colony, learning about the importance of missions to Mars by coding a rover, investigating rover tests in the Atacama Desert, using spectroscopy to detect what light reveals in faraway places, and investigating research taking place right here in Utah’s extreme environments.
