From Cosmos to Intelligent Life: The Four Ages of Astrobiology [PDF]
, 2012 The history of life on Earth and in other potential life-bearing planetary platforms is deeply linked to the history of the universe. Since life as we know it relies on chemical elements forged in dying heavy stars, the universe needs to be old enough ...

The Beginnings of Astrobiology [PDF]
International Journal of Astrobiology, 2002 With the present surge of interest in astrobiology and its emergence as a new scientific discipline in its own right, the role of a celebrated pioneer is all too often forgotten. There can be little doubt that the late Sir Fred Hoyle played a key part in relating astronomical phenomena to questions of life.
