  1. Question

    What education level do I need to be an Astrobiologist?

    Most professional astrobiologists are scientists with PhD degrees, but there are also an increasing number of other roles in astrobiology, including laboratory technicians, computer experts, teachers, and writers, that do not require more than a college degree. David Morrison
