Spaceward Bound event in the Mojave Deser , CA (an outreach exercise) with Dr Chris McKay and Ames Education department personnel Brian Day, Barbara Bazar and a accompaning (learning for the the classroom) team of teachers will be studying side-by-side with NASA scientists who search for life in extreme environments, closely approximating what they expect to find on other planets. Why the Mojave -- an inhospitable, sun-drenched spot in the California Desert? This natural setting presents scientists with opportunities to study environments that are analogous to what explorers will find on the Moon and Mars. Teachers and scientists will perform scientific fieldwork in lunar geology, Mars astrobiology, Mars geology, and issues of temperature and solar inundation and radiation. for additional information and Outreach projects see http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/ ARC-2007-ACD07-0056-136

Summary
Congressman Scott Peters, left, from California’s 52nd congressional district, visits the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) to learn more about the command and its research capabilities. During a tour of the command’s infectious diseases laboratories, Peters learned about NHRC’s biosurveillance activities to identify and mitigate infectious disease threats to the health and readiness of service members and their families. Researchers in the background practice the donning of personal protective equipment, which is part of the lab’s regular training to ensure staff know how to properly use clothing and equipment designed to prevent contact with pathogens.
