About Us The W. M. Keck Laboratory for Space Simulation is a
research laboratory in the Arkansas Center for Space and Planetary
Science at the University of Arkansas. The laboratory was
established and is operated with a grant from the W. M. Keck Foundation in
Los Angeles. One of the primary research areas of the laboratory is the
study of the stability of water on Mars and the possibility of microrganisms
surviving on the present day Mars. We are also interested in the nature
of the surface of asteroids and with the connection between meteorites and
asteroids. Since we are a university research center, we are especially
interested in using our research to provide an exciting and substantive interdisciplinary
education and training for students at the undergraduate and graduate level.
At the undergraduate level we offer summer internships for students
considering a career in the space and planetary sciences and who want
exposure to research prior to committing to a graduate program. For the
graduate student we offer a research platform for the MS and PhD degrees in
space and planetary science as well as concentrations in space and planetary
science in the graduate programs in the biological sciences, geography,
geology. and physics graduate programs. The graduate programs and
program options are managed for the university by the Arkansas Center for
Space and Planetary Science.
