Life's an Experiment is a side quest in the Research Lab. It is available as soon as you open the Research Lab, but you won't be able to make progress on it until you finish the Biodome sequence in the Research Lab and unlocked the monsters.

It was available during the Meteoroid Expedition event, so if you completed it then, it will not be available.

Quest Tactics[]

No hurries, but… why not? This is a fun one. Note that it's UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE until you've completed the Biodome sequence starting with Set Creatures Free! (1/4) and then quests to unlock each of the individual monsters involved (so 8 quests total).

Lore[]

I'm not one to question Alien science, but these experiments seem to be getting more extreme. Each combined creature appears to be more volatile than the one before. I wonder if Dust has anything to do with this? Probably not. I'm sure Captain Piak's warned them. In any case, I'd better defeat these creations and keep them from escaping.
