Ediacaran Fauna Fossils Podcast: Educational Materials

Advent of Complex LifeFor the Ediacaran Fauna Fossils podcast, we worked with the Advent of Complex Life Project (ACL), a project of the U.S. based NASA Astrobiology Institute. The Advent of Complex Life Project is working to answer questions about the origins of complex life here on earth—how it evolved, when, and why—in order to recognize what life might look like on other planets.
