Astrobiology

-Astrobiology- study of how life on Earth began, life beyond earth, and how to find it -Consists of: Geology, Astronomy, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Scientific Engineering, Molecular biology, Biogeochemistry, Oceanography, Mathematics, and Microbiology - Study extremophiles Study planets with possible life (Titan Saturn System Mission) Example . Titan- Saturn’s Moon has cryovolcanoes

-I chose this job because take deep intrest in science (astronomy)-Love to know more about other possible species -Interesting to learn about exoplanets, and extremophiles -Amazing to be apart of possible new life on other planet(s) -Provides not only drive academically, but professionally as well -Oppertunites to konw more about the world around you
