An astronomer and science popularizer explains the basics of astrobiology to outline five plausible scenarios for finding extraterrestrials\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Long before space travel was possible, the idea of life beyond Earth transfixed humans. In this fascinating book, astronomer Jon Willis explores the science of astrobiology and the possibility of locating other life in our own galaxy.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Describing the most recent discoveries by space exploration missions, including the Kepler space telescope, the Mars \u003ci\u003eCuriosity\u003c\/i\u003e rover, and the \u003ci\u003eNew Horizons\u003c\/i\u003e probe, Willis asks readers to imagine—and choose among—five scenarios for finding life. He encourages us to wonder whether life might exist within Mars’s subsoil ice. He reveals the vital possibilities on the water-ice moons Europa and Enceladus. He views Saturn’s moon Titan through the lens of our own planet’s ancient past. And, he even looks beyond our solar system, investigating the top candidates for a “second Earth” in a myriad of exoplanets and imagining the case of a radio signal arriving from deep space. Covering the most up-to-date research, this accessibly written book provides readers with the basic knowledge necessary to decide where they would look for alien life.","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32105853550675,"sku":"","price":34.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780300208696.jpg?v=1758381338","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/all-these-worlds-are-yours-the-scientific-search-for-alien-life","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
