Astrobiology and the People Who Study It: Stories of Science and Self by Nicolle E. B. Zellner (Series in Astrobiology)
Requirements: .PDF/.ePUB reader, 19 mb
Overview: The first of its kind, this book is a collection of memoirs that describe the lives – not just the science – of some of the people who have advanced our understanding of the conditions for life on Earth and in the universe. Astrobiology became a mainstream topic with the announcement in 1996 that fossilized life had been found in Martian meteorite ALH84001; that claim has since been discredited. Nonetheless, following the 1992 announcement of the discovery of planets orbiting around a pulsar, it reinvigorated investigations and debate about conditions required for the origin(s) of life on Earth and the possibility of life elsewhere.
