Environmental Genomes and the Evolution of Complex Systems in Simple Organisms Astrobiology at the Marine Biological Laboratory and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution seeks an understanding about the genotypic/phenotypic evolution of early life forms and how changing environments contributed to the development of complex systems in simple organisms. From this understanding, we will be better prepared for future discoveries about extraterrestrial life that might come from sample return missions or exploration of other planets. The multifaceted projects in the Woods Hole Astrobiology Program are united by common scientific interests and resource requirements for studies of molecular evolution. Just as astronomers with powerful telescopes can see very distant events that happened close to the birth of the universe, so biologists who analyze genomes can hope to infer events that date from the earliest moments in the evolution of life RESEARCH PROJECTS: Exploring Early Eukaryotic Evolution: Diversity and Relationships Among Novel Deep-Branching Lineages (Virginia Edgcomb, Andrew Roger, Mitchell L.

Through research on ancient rocks, modern hot springs, and Mars meteorites, the Institute is dedicated to identifying specific properties of a rock, soil, or other samples which indicate that biological activity is occurring or has occurred. http://ares.jsc.nasa.gov/Astrobiology/Biomarkers/index.html

strobiology is the study of life in the universe. JSC scientists from many disciplines are investigating the origin and evolution of life. Ancient Life on Earth The formation of Earth and its atmosphere made it possible for life to begin and evolve over time. Life on this planet has been traced back 3.8 billion years to the period when heavy cometary bombardment brought life-giving water and organic chemicals to Earth. The evolutionary record of Earth is crucial to the search for extraterrestrial life. Our past holds the only clues to how, why, or when living creatures might arise elsewhere in the universe. Life Endures Earth's Extreme Environments Astrobiology research has revealed life's habitable zone to be much broader than we originally thought. Life has been found thriving in Antarctic rocks, in boiling hot springs, in the ocean depths, and deep underground. Antarctica Antarctica is the least hospitable place on Earth. Yet, exobiologists have uncovered thriving populations of life in the dry valleys and ice covered lakes. This finding suggests that extreme cold and minimal water need not preclude life on Mars-like planets. Hot Springs Subterranean Environments Bacteria has been found in rocks buried up to two miles underground. There may be more organisms living underground than at the Earth's surface.

Home X Summer 2004 Planetary Science Summer School Spring 2004 Mars Exploration Rover Class Training / Employment Opportunities Course Archive Astrobiology Books :: BACKGROUND The future of Astrobiology research demands that scientists be educated across traditional academic programs. Training the next generation of Astrobiologists will require an interdisiplinary approach. Beginning in the fall of 1998, ASU began offering courses that form the core of a degree concentration in Astrobiology. ASU's Astrobiology Program is an interdisciplinary program of study and research that offers exciting opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students who seek a high-level academic experience. Currently the program supports 2 Ph.D., 5 Masters candidates, 3 Post Docs, 4 research staff, and 6 undergraduate students. Longer-term goals include offering a Bachelor of Inter-Disciplinary Studies in Astrobiology. The current Astrobiology program includes faculty researchers and students at all levels from the Departments of Geological Sciences Chemistry and Biochemistry Biology , and Microbiology and Plant Biology . ASU's Astrobiology Program is also supported by affiliated programs in

The scientific search for extraterrestrial life forms has been bolstered by two recent discoveries. First, the discovery of life forms in exotic environments on Earth indicates that life is very hearty and can adapt to the strangest and most hostile environments. Second, astronomers found planets orbiting stars besides our sun over 50 extrasolar planets have been discovered as of 2001. Are there alien life forms on any of these planets?

SETI, astronomy, bioastronomy, extraterrestrials, extraterrestrial, aliens, alien, UFO, E.T., ET, Contact, SETI@Home, astrobiology, exobiology, education, planets, space 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

40. Geobiology At Caltech/JPL Studying the interaction of life with the physical earth. http://www.gps.caltech.edu/options/geobiology/

Faculty Courses Images GPS Home Welcome to Caltech's Geobiology Home! click on image for caption and additional images Why should geological and planetary scientists be interested in molecular geobiology, and genetics in particular? One answer is simply that genes are fossils. In many cases, genes are extraordinarily ancient in origin and contain information about past events and environments on this planet. There are many examples of this, from the "Snowball Earth" episodes in the Proterozoic triggering evolution of the Superoxide dismutase, to bursts of True Polar Wander during the Cambrian Evolutionary Explosion . A second answer is that understanding how extant organisms function at the molecular genetic level will better enable us to interpret past, present and even extraterrestrial biogeochemical signatures. Though exploring the molecular evolution of organisms and their organic and inorganic products, research in the Geobiology program at Caltech will interrogate the history of life on earth as well as the role the biota continue to play in shaping modern environments.
