Astrobiology Magazine Launches European Edition
Paris, France (SPX) Dec 28, 2006 Astrobiology Magazine is proud to launch a European edition of our magazine. A quarterly publication with a completely new format, Astrobiology Magazine, European Edition will highlight scientists in the European community who are studying the history of life on Earth and the possibility for life beyond our world. More like a glossy magazine than a web page, the December premiere issue has interviews with top European scientists, stories about European research, overviews of recent European conferences, and a list of upcoming events of special interest to the European astrobiology community. This issue also features an op-ed page written by Andre Brack of the French Space Agency. Because astrobiology often touches upon societal beliefs, art, and culture, a special "Retrospections" section focuses on history, philosophy, literature and religion. In the December issue, Mark Brake and Reverend Neil Hook of the Cardiff Centre for Astrobiology write about the impact science fiction has on science in their essay, "Copernicus and the Wild Goose Chase." Join us as the "Old World" of Europe embarks on journeys around the globe and to other worlds, continuing their grand tradition of exploration. As they seek answers about life in the universe, we hope you'll enjoy reading about their pursuits in the new Astrobiology Magazine, European Edition!

Debating The Boundaries Of Life
Moffett Field CA (SPX) Dec 27, 2006Lynn Rothschild: I'm going to try to get a discussion going on what is "life as we know it." Can we put any boundaries around this? We've had suggestions all the way from lunar rovers and the sun to different solvents, to even the idea that we don't know enough biology to even pose the question, "What is life?" So who would like to take the first stab at that? |
