Jan. 2021 "Life in the Universe" Exhibit Planned for France's New Grenoble Science Center

This exhibit will look at how life on Earth has always been an inspiration for imagining life on other planets, in science fiction as well as in scientific research. Scientists study “extremophiles” or organisms that can live in deadly conditions for more living species. The exhibit adapts alien imagery from David’s best- selling book, “Alien Worlds: Your Guide to Extraterrestrial Life” published by National Geographic. Opening 2023. https://lacasemate.fr
