Introducing the Concept and the Content All at Once -- Lessons from Cranbrook Institute of Science for Effective Astrobiology Outreach and Education

Andrew Gangidine

Abstract

Astrobiology as a field is not well known by the public, and is a difficult topic to introduce to the those who have never heard of it before. This presentation will showcase projects and experiences from a museum setting to explore how to best bring up such a complex field of science, and how astrobiologists can make their work as digestible as possible to the general public.
