Microbial Fuel Cells Applied to the Metabolically-Based Detection of Extraterrestrial Life [PDF]
, 2010 Since the 1970's, when the Viking spacecrafts carried out experiments aimed to the detection of microbial metabolism on the surface of Mars, the search for nonspecific methods to detect life in situ has been one of the goals of astrobiology. It is usually required that the methodology can detect life independently from its composition or form, and that

Biota and Biomolecules in Extreme Environments on Earth: Implications for Life Detection on Mars [PDF]
Life, 2014 The three main requirements for life as we know it are the presence of organic compounds, liquid water, and free energy. Several groups of organic compounds (e.g., amino acids, nucleobases, lipids) occur in all life forms on Earth and are used as ...

The Futility of Exoplanet Biosignatures [PDF]
BioEssays (2023), 2022 The ultimate goal of astrobiology is to determine the distribution and diversity of life in the universe. But as the word "biosignature" suggests, what will be detected is not life itself, but an observation implicating a particular process associated with living systems.
