The Search for Life in the Universe - Dr. Stephen Kane, Caltech
One of the most profound questions that has faced humanity is: How common is
life in the universe? The discovery of planets outside of our Solar System has
provided additional motivation to answer this question and advances in
biochemistry enable us to better understand the development of life on our own
planet. In this talk I will outline some of the basic questions we are trying to
answer which have implications for the way we view astrobiology and the
frequency of life.
