2. Introduction To Exobiology Introduction to exobiology. Come explore the field of exobiology, thesearch for the origin of life on the Earth, and in the Universe. http://www.chem.duke.edu/~jds/cruise_chem/Exobiology/

Introduction to Exobiology You're driving in your car down dark road late one night with your friends. All of a sudden, you see a large circular object with blue lights spinning right in front of your car. A bright spotlight shines down on your car for ten seconds, and then leaves. As the object disappears before your eyes, you are left in amazement, wondering what just happened. Was that really a UFO? Is there really intelligent life out there in the universe? You turn around to ask your friends, only to find that one of them is missingÉ Sound a little farfetched? OK. How about something a little more down to Earth. You just got back from a two week vacation in Hawaii with your family. You walk into your room, throw down your suitcase, and sit on your bed. You glance over at the lamp on the table next to your bed. Reaching over to turn on the lamp, you notice a rather unpleasant smell. Looking down, there is a half full glass of what once might have been juice, but now is a nice bluish-green color with fuzz all around the edges. Yuck! Where did that come from? Scientists have been asking these same questions for a long time now. Come explore the field of exobiology, the search for the origin of life on the Earth, and in the Universe.

Cosmology This page contains information about courses Cosmology and exobiology read in the fall semester 1999 and Cosmology and particle physics read in the fall semester 2001 at the Physics Institute of NTNU, Trondheim. The part on cosmology is read on lower mathematical level accessible not only to students of physics. A brief preliminary version of the lecture notes can be found in Czech version Individual lectures can be found in this list: General principles example Relativistic cosmology Newtonian cosmology ... Nucleosynthesis The part on general astrophysics was read by E. Oestgaard and the part on exobiology by K. Oestgaard in 1999. The other parts of the course were read by Bo-Sture Skagerstam and Souriraja Ramadurai in 2001. A deeper understanding of the cosmology requires the knowledge of general relativity, which can be found e.g. in Lecture notes on general relativity written for the course read in NTNU in 1997. Concerning the part on exobiology, one may find interesting The Astrobiology Web A wide range of web-pages dealing with related topics is referred by http://www.galacticsurf.com

8. The Miller/Urey Experiment New theories have recently been offered as alternative sites for theorigin of life. Return to the beginning of the exobiology unit. http://www.chem.duke.edu/~jds/cruise_chem/Exobiology/miller.html

Miller/Urey Experiment By the 1950s, scientists were in hot pursuit of the origin of life. Around the world, the scientific community was examining what kind of environment would be needed to allow life to begin. In 1953, Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey, working at the University of Chicago, conducted an experiment which would change the approach of scientific investigation into the origin of life. Miller took molecules which were believed to represent the major components of the early Earth's atmosphere and put them into a closed system The gases they used were methane (CH ), ammonia (NH ), hydrogen (H ), and water (H O). Next, he ran a continuous electric current through the system, to simulate lightning storms believed to be common on the early earth. Analysis of the experiment was done by chromotography. At the end of one week, Miller observed that as much as 10-15% of the carbon was now in the form of organic compounds. Two percent of the carbon had formed some of the amino acids which are used to make proteins. Perhaps most importantly, Miller's experiment showed that organic compounds such as amino acids, which are essential to cellular life, could be made easily under the conditions that scientists believed to be present on the early earth. This enormous finding inspired a multitude of further experiments. In 1961, Juan Oro found that amino acids could be made from hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and ammonia in an aqueous solution. He also found that his experiment produced an amazing amount of the nucleotide base, adenine.

WELCOME To An Official NASA Webpage Exobiology Defined Branch Members The Exobiology Branch conducts research in Exobiology seeking to increase our knowledge of the origin, evolution, and distribution of life in the universe. Answers are sought to questions such as: To what extent did chemical evolution occur in the primitive bodies of the solar system? How did life originate on the Earth, and what role did minerals play? What evidence exists regarding the early interplay between biological and environmental evolution? What do molecular fossils tell us about early microbial evolution? How can the study of contemporary microbes or geochemical samples inform us of past events? The work of the staff in this Branch also provides the conceptual basis and measurement criteria for future spacecraft missions to other solar system bodies such as Mars, Titan, and comets, in search of answers to such fundamental questions in non-terrestrial settings.

Extrasolar Planetary Systems Detection of Earth-like Planets with Large Telescopes Using large space-based telescopes (>10-meter) Astronomers could search for terrestrial planets with atmospheres suitable for life as we know it. Spectroscopy could be used to detect the presence of Ozone, an indicator of oxygen in the atmosphere as well as water bands. Methane produced as a result of biogenic activity could be searched for using the same methods. Using telescopes in Earth orbit planets could be searched for using direct detection methods. Stellar coronagraphs can be used to supress the light from the planet's parent star making detection easier. There is a higher probability of detecting planetary companions around nearby stars in the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. This is due to the fact that the star to planet flux ratio is less in this region of the spectrum than in the visible. To separate a planetary companion from its primary stellar halo, one must use a telescope (or array of telescopes) with an aperture (or baseline) B such that r/D is greater than or equal to the wavelength at which the observation is being carried out divided by the aperture (or baseline) of the telescope (or array of telescopes).

PLANNED MISSIONS: ANTICIPATED MEASUREMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS This section is based on the mission scenario currently envisioned by the IMEWG. It is a plan for launching probes to Mars at every launch opportunity from 1996 to 2003. The plan assumes multiple launches, with the U.S. component being two launches at each opportunity so that failure or delay of one element will not result in a total failure for that opportunity. The plan also assumes that missions currently in their implementation phase will be launched as planned. The early missions are predominantly U.S. and Russian, so the scenario is strongly dependent on sustained funding for Mars exploration in both the U.S. and Russia. THE 1996 OPPORTUNITY. Three missions are approved for launch in 1996: the U.S. Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) and Pathfinder missions, and the Russian mission, Mars-96 (formerly Mars-94). The first of these is designed to recover part of the Mars Observer objectives. Mars Global Surveyor The U.S. MGS, the first element of the proposed multimission Mars Surveyor Program, is an orbital mission intended to recover part of the Mars Observer science objectives. However, the spacecraft, to be launched on a Delta, is considerably smaller than the Mars Observer spacecraft and the original payload cannot be fully accommodated. MGS will carry the following instruments of relevance to exobiology: Camera.
