The Design of a Bioinspired Integrated Total Habitability Instrument for Planetary Exploration: A Review of Potential Sensing Technologies [PDF]
BiomimeticsOne key objective of astrobiology is to investigate and discover if other planetary bodies are habitable. The determination of whether an environment is habitable to known life requires measuring liquid water, CHNOPS elements, other nutrients, and energy

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: The Number of Stars and Their Properties
Universe, 2019 In a multiverse setting, we expect to be situated in a universe that is exceptionally good at producing life. Though the conditions for what life needs to arise and thrive are currently unknown, many will be tested in the coming decades.

Current Biology, 2017 What is a habit? One problem with the concept of habit has been that virtually everyone has their own ideas of what is meant by such a term. Whilst not eschewing folk psychology, it is useful to re-examine dictionary definitions of 'habit'. The Oxford Dictionary of English defines habit as "a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Stellar and Atmospheric Habitability
Universe, 2022 Stellar activity and planetary atmospheric properties have the potential to strongly influence habitability. To date, neither have been adequately studied in the multiverse context, so there has been no assessment of how these effects impact the ...

Hard rock dark biosphere and habitability
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 The discovery that most of the prokaryotic diversity and biomass on Earth resides in the deep subsurface, calls for an improved definition of habitability, which should consider the existence of dark biospheres in other planets and moons of the Solar ...

Terminator Habitability: The Case for Limited Water Availability on M-dwarf Planets
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Rocky planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are among the most promising and abundant astronomical targets for detecting habitable climates. Planets in the M-dwarf habitable zone are likely synchronously rotating, such that we expect significant day–night ...
