What Is Space Bioethics?

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical bioethics examines moral issues in terrestrial medicine and the life sciences. According to Konrad Szocik, space bioethics merely relocates those questions to harsher environments. We argue that this view is incomplete: space bioethics is a genuinely original domain.

Out There No One Has a Right to Die

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The eventual goal of space exploration is to colonize exoplanets and their moons outside our solar system. This is a dangerous and immoral endeavour. The extraterrestrial life forms encountered would be hostile, vulnerable or both, and the descendants of the original pioneers would be involuntarily exposed to hazardous conditions and ...

Collective Attention in Virtual Teams: A Pathway for Mitigating Communication Delays

open access: yesPersonnel Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virtual work has become a defining feature of modern organizations, intensifying the need for strategies that support virtual team performance. Communication delays—prolonged intervals between sending and receiving messages—are one of the most persistent and consequential barriers to virtual team performance.

Exoplanets and SETI

open access: yes, 2017
The discovery of exoplanets has both focused and expanded the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. The consideration of Earth as an exoplanet, the knowledge of the orbital parameters of individual exoplanets, and our new understanding of the ...

Autonomous Planetary Rover Navigation and Crater‐Based Map Augmentation for Path Planning and Rock Localization Using Space ROS

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Autonomous planetary rovers operate in GPS‐denied, low‐texture, crater‐rich environments where traditional SLAM‐based navigation systems suffer from localization drift and unreliable obstacle handling. To address these challenges, this work proposes a Space‐ROS–based autonomous navigation framework integrating ROS2 with the NAV2 stack, RTAB‐Map visual ...

A Novel Technosignature Search in the Breakthrough Listen Green Bank Telescope Archive

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Breakthrough Listen program is, to date, the most extensive search for technological life beyond Earth. Over the past 9 yr, it has surveyed thousands of nearby stars and close to 100 nearby galaxies with telescopes around the world, including the ...

Technosignatures: Frameworks for Their Assessment

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In view of the promising advancements in technosignature science, the question of what constitutes a robust technosignature is rendered crucial. In this paper, we first delineate a Bayesian framework for ascertaining the reliability of potential ...

Searching for extraterrestrial intelligence across a century

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, is an old idea but a new science. Both inspirational and controversial, the scientific search for non-human artificial signals or communications, known as technosignatures, was pioneered by a few visionary scientists and through amazing technological advances of recent years is
