Does your child have an insatiable curiosity about the Universe? Are they a fountain of boundless questions, constantly asking “why?” Are they not satisfied with simple explanations?

If so, then this blog is for you! I want to help you answer your child’s questions and fuel their excitement for the cosmos.

Hi, I’m Gemma.

I’m a genome biologist, data engineer, programmer, AI/machine learning consultant and mother of two children aged ten and twelve.

I have a Ph.D. in complex systems, over twelve years of experience in academic research and a passion for astrobiology and parenting curious kids.

Astrobiology for kids

Astrobiology is the study of life in the Universe – both on Earth and elsewhere.

It’s space + biology, and so much more: perfect for curious kids and parents!

I go deep into complex topics with science/STEM activities that you can do at home to fuel your child’s excitement for life in our universe.
