Organized by Astrobiology Roadmap Objective
- Objective 1: Determine whether the atmosphere of the early Earth, hydrothermal or exogenous matter were significant sources of organic matter. (6 reports)
- Objective 2: Develop and test plausible pathways by which ancient counterparts of membrane systems, proteins and nucleic acid were synthesized from simpler precursors and assembled into protocells. (10 reports)
- Objective 3: Replicating, catalytic systems capable of evolution, and construct laboratory models of metabolism in primitive living systems. (2 reports)
- Objective 4: Expand and interpret the genomic database of a select group of key microorganisms in order to reveal the history and dynamics of evolution. (2 reports)
- Objective 5: Describe the sequences of causes and effects associated with the development of Earth's early biosphere and the global environment. (8 reports)
- Objective 7: Identify the environmental limits for by examining biological adaptations to extremes in environmental conditions. (4 reports)
Goal 1: Understand the nature and distribution of habitable environments in the Universe
Goal 2: Explore for past or present habitable environments, prebiotic chemistry and signs of life elsewhere in our Solar System
Goal 3: Understand how life originates from cosmic and planetary precursors
Goal 4: Understand how past life on Earth interacted with its changing planetary and Solar System environment
Goal 5: Understand the evolutionary mechanisms and environmental limits of life
Goal 7: Determine how to recognize signatures of life on other worlds and on early Earth
