Description

Explore the fundamental concepts of life detection with Biosignatures for Astrobiology from Springer. This comprehensive volume provides a broad overview of the markers used to identify life in the universe. It covers a wide range of scientific topics, starting from prebiotic signatures found in extraterrestrial materials to the specific signs that characterize both living and fossilized life. Written by an interdisciplinary team of experts, the 15 chapters offer detailed explanations regarding the nature of biosignatures. Readers will learn about the technologies used in space flight instrumentation to detect these signs, whether through in situ measurements or from orbit. Beyond the technical data, the book includes philosophical reflections on what finding life elsewhere would mean for humanity. This text serves as an essential resource for students and professionals interested in the intersection of astronomy, biology, and biogeophysics.
