Firstly, the main reason we chose this topic was we truly idolized Prof. Betül Kaçar (the leader of NASA Astrobiology research team) and we wanted to do something original. Our aim in making this project is to find out how a living thing can best live in space conditions. We developed a game with this information by solving the questions in this category.

Our aim is to entertain and inform our target audience and make more projects and studies about astrobiology. We developed a game based on these information that we found. The main purpose of this game is to take all good feature that will improve our biological character and reach a planet named "Utopia". The planet Utopia represents space conditions. If we explain the gameplay, it is a game played with dice. Players starts from the starting point and try to reach planet Utopia. On the way they collect ATP, H2O, CO2 and gens. They decide which path are they will take. On each path there are stations. Every station is a place for completing one of the missions the player should complete to finish the game.

First station in this game is Water Station.In this station you are supposed to use lipase enzyme and Arbidopsis plant

Second Station in this game is Photosynthesis Station.It helps player to do photosynthesis by using water , carbon dioxide and Arabidopsis

We had a weekend full of study, research, fun and perseverance. In the awareness of responsibility and with the will to success. It gave us an opportunity about combining our creativity with knowledge about space, astrobiology and technology. It helped us to enrich our knowledge of astrobiology in space conditions. Our approaches were making a fun way to draw attention and raise awareness of space biology.We made a diagram about project steps to understand better and easier.We would like to thank powerful women in science that made us interested in this topic.
