Plato
"Astrobiology (other terms have been exobiology,
exopaleontology, and bioastronomy) is the study of the
origin,
evolution,
distribution, and future of
life in
the
universe.
This
interdisciplinary
field encompasses the search for habitable environments
in our
Solar System
and
habitable planets
outside our Solar System, the search for evidence of
prebiotic chemistry,
life on Mars
and other bodies in our Solar System, laboratory and
field research into the origins and early evolution of
life on
Earth,
and studies of the potential for life to adapt to
challenges on Earth and in space" Source:
