Research conducted by 小9直播 faculty and students suggests that Mars may be more habitable than once thought.
The work is a collaboration between WSU astrobiologist Mark Schneegurt, Benton Clark with the Space Science Institute and Fei Chen with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Most of the experimental work was conducted by students in WSU biological sciences, including Robin Cesur and Irfan Ansari.
The team is funded through the Planetary Protection Research program at NASA with a ROSES award and has been working together for nearly a decade in connection with the Wichita Space Initiative.
