A More Comprehensive Habitable Zone for Finding Life on Other Planets
The habitable zone (HZ) is the circular region around a star(s) where standing bodies of water could exist on the surface of a rocky planet. Space missions employ the HZ to select promising targets for follow-up habitability assessment.

Viroids-First—A Model for Life on Earth, Mars and Exoplanets
The search for extraterrestrial life, recently fueled by the discovery of exoplanets, requires defined biosignatures. Current biomarkers include those of extremophilic organisms, typically archaea.

A Statistical Approach to Illustrate the Challenge of Astrobiology for Public Outreach
In this study, we attempt to illustrate the competition that constitutes the main challenge of astrobiology, namely the competition between the probability of extraterrestrial life and its detectability.

Circular Spectropolarimetric Sensing of Vegetation in the Field: Possibilities for the Remote Detection of Extraterrestrial Life. [PDF]
Homochirality is a generic and unique property of all biochemical life, and the fractional circular polarization of light it induces therefore constitutes a potentially unambiguous biosignature.

Alien life matters: reflections on cosmopolitanism, otherness, and astrobiology
This is a synaptic paper that invites the reader to take a stroll on the edges of cross-disciplinary knowledge. We will walk the roads of anthropology, history, philosophy, astronomy and biology.

Asteroids and cometary nuclei consist of the same primary substance as the gas-dust cloud from which the solar system was formed. Now this substance is being studied in the meteorite material that fell to the Earth's surface. NASA experts suggested after

Is Extraterrestrial Life Suppressed on Subsurface Ocean Worlds due to the Paucity of Bioessential Elements? [PDF]
The availability of bioessential elements for “life as we know it”, such as phosphorus (P) or possibly molybdenum (Mo), is expected to restrict the biological productivity of extraterrestrial biospheres.
