We explore whether there may be life around hydrothermal vents on the Moons of Jupiter and look at the methane lakes on Saturn's Moon Titan. We then take a look a which exoplanets in other solar systems could be habitable.

Class experience

US Grade 6 - 9
To discover and learn without realising it, because you are having fun! By the end of this course students will understand why scientists are excited about visiting the moons of Saturn and Jupiter, and what progress we are making finding Earth 2.0
I have a BSc in Geology and an MSc in Geophysics. I also have a PhD in Philosophy
This class may briefly explore the end of the Earth in 5 billion years, and the epic scale of the universe, and although I will point out this will not affect the student or anyone they know, it may be distressing for more sensitive students.

This class used PowerPoint presentations including some video snippets. No other 3rd party resources are used.
