BioBLAST is a multimedia curriculum supplement for high school biology classes that incorporates NASA's Advanced Life Support (ALS) research. Students learn about basic and applied life sciences research underway at NASA centers and apply their prior knowledge of biological processes during the course of this program. Students use simulation models based on NASA ALS data to develop and test their own designs for a bioregenerative system to support life out of Earth's atmosphere. The interactive adventure/simulation framework, includes computer-based tools and resources, telecommunications events, and laboratory experiments.
