Preliminary Programme
First European Workshop on
Exo/Astrobiology
21-23 May 2001
ESRIN, Frascati (near Rome), Italy
Background and Purpose
The multidisciplinary area of Exo/Astrobiology has recently experienced a tremendous surge of interest within the wide scientific community involving both space and non-space disciplines. This includes such diverse fields as the chemical origin of life on Earth, the persistence of life in extreme conditions, interplanetary transport mechanisms and search for life strategies in the Solar System and beyond. The European Exobiology Network is an association of European scientists active in this field and dedicated to bringing together and strengthening European scientific and intellectual resources to ensure a leading role for Europe in this field. Since the 1980's the ESA microgravity life sciences activities have involved exobiology research concentrated on the effects of low Earth space conditions such as solar and cosmic radiation and low gravity on organic and life forms. The programme intends to extend these activities to search for life strategies in the Solar System. Recently the activities of the ESA Space Science programme have been extended to include exo/astrobiology as a cross-fertilised discipline which can benefit from a number of ESA missions such as Huygens-Cassini, Mars Express, Rosetta, Eddington and IRSI-Darwin.

Notice: This page has been linked from several astrobiology teaching sites, as the "UC Berkeley Astrobiology Course". This is not true! This is an assignment I did for a graduate-level seminar on astrobiology taught by Jere Lipps in 1998, and while it is my considered opinion on what should be in an undergraduate course, this plan has never actually been used. You are most welcome to use my ideas, but perhaps you want to visit a real course,
Astrobiology
This is an interdisciplinary upper division course for science, engineering, and social science majors. The syllabus attempts to cover the fascinating scientific discoveries and techniques in this field, and discuss how the subject can be investigated responsibly, considering both human needs and respecting life elsewhere. Many of the issues here are best covered in a discussion format, so some lectures will take the form of a guided discussion. Be prepared to steer the discussion towards your own point of view!

What is Astrobiology? Astrobiology is the study of life in a cosmic context. As defined by NASA's Astrobiology Institute astrobiology seeks to answer the following questions: 1. How does life begin and develop? 2. Does life exist elsewhere in the universe? 3. What is life's future on Earth and beyond? Astrobiology is multidisciplinary. It involves cooperation between scientists in many different fields - astronomy, atmospheric physics, biology, chemistry, geology, palaeontology, planetary science and others.

Astrobiology in the ASRG
at the University of Kentucky
Astrobiology is the study of the origin, evolution, distribution, and destiny of life in the universe. It uses many scientific disciplines and space technologies to address these essential issues. While these questions are as old as civilization, advances in science and space technology make it possible for us to find answers to them. More planets have been discovered outside our solar system than exist in it. Life has been found to exist under conditions previously thought impossible. The discovery of life on Mars or Europa would add priority to the search for Earth-like planets orbiting other stars in our galaxy, and to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.
There are three paths along which the search for other life in the universe is being pursued: detection of planets in the "livable zone" around distant stars

Yet 15 institutions and 600 collaborators are involved in NASA Astrobiology Institute (NAI). Their goals are to answer the following questions:
  • Question 1: How does life begin and develop?
  • Question 2: Does life exist elsewhere in the universe?
  • Question 3: What is life's future on Earth and beyond?
Attempting to answer these questions certainly isn't simple. It requires exotic materials, advanced analytical techniques, terrestrial and space exploration, and some fancy critical thinking. The way scientists go about answering question one is the topic of this piece. It was the focus of a talk given by Dr. Jack D. Farmer to the Council for the Advancement of Science Writing at Arizona State University on November 5, 2001. Question 2 is addressed in "What's Hot About Astrobiology II" which you can visit by clicking on the associated link at the bottom of this page.

(Image courtesy of Jacey) Commentators often bemoan what they see as the increasing tendency of research to be inward looking, self-serving and specialized. Happily, some things buck the trend. Astrobiology does this in dramatic fashion, and is the theme for the eclectic selection of review, progress and commentary that follows. Astrobiology is nothing less than the study of life in the Universe. It encompasses fields as diverse as geology, astronomy, evolutionary and developmental biology, human physiology and palaeontology. National Astrobiology Institute It would be easy to dismiss astrobiology as either a pointless fad or a new brand for goods long past their sell-by date (does anyone remember 'exobiology'?). But such condemnation misses the point. In an age of increased narrowness of research goals, it is invigorating to lift one's eyes to the stars and consider life in its broadest sense. One consequence of astrobiology will be to deepen our understanding of our own place in the Universe, our uniqueness and our potential. As this collection of articles shows, many ventures labelled as astrobiology are quixotic, even romantic, perhaps some way from the usual stuff of science. Disagreement abounds, and answers to many astrobiological problems may never be found. But that there is no universal truth is true for all science: the stimulation is in the quest, not in the finding. How much more valid is that statement when the quest encompasses the spatial and temporal breadth of the cosmos?

Synopsis
This course will study the origin and development of life on the planet Earth within the context of an evolving universe. We begin with an overview of the origins of the universe from the "Big Bang" to our own solar system. We then integrate the principles of physics, chemistry, geology and biology to study the origins of life on Earth. We also address the ultimate fate of life in the universe based upon our understanding of thermodynamics and the expansion of the universe. The essential features of all living systems are discussed as they relate to what we might expect in terms of life elsewhere in the cosmos. The labs for the course include computer simulations and hands-on experiments to demonstrate essential features of the (i) origins of the universe, (ii) life on the planet Earth, (iii) search for life on Earth and elsewhere in cosmos, and (iv) extraterrestrial space travel and exploration.

Scientists Widen the Hunt for Alien Life
(excellent)
" ... a quiet revolution is now challenging this view and shaking the foundations of exobiology, the study
of the possibility of life elsewhere in the cosmos. Alien life, the new thinking goes, might not actually need the warming rays of a nearby star. It might thrive inside dim moons and planets. The dark ecosystems would be warmed by inner heat, bathed in melted ice and powered by chemicals."
New York Times, 5/6/97 The Search for Life on Other Planets (book summary)
" In The Search for Life on Other Planets, Jakosky offers a scientific foundation for thinking there may be life elsewhere in the Universe. Using the early history of the Earth and the conditions that would allow life to exist, he creates a sound, scientific foundation for the possibility of life on planets other than our own."
