Good morning friends! I am back to tell you more from #ExSSV - apologies for skipping yesterday, my mind wasn’t up for it.

Today, we start with #habitability, #biosignatures #technosignatures.

We kick off the session with Tiffany Kataria on assessing #conditions for the origin of #life on #exoplanet. For Tiffany, the origin of life is from geophysics to biophysics and important - habitable doesn’t mean inhabited and the origin of life is a way to rule out these false positives. #ExSSV

No, the James Webb Space Telescope hasn’t found life out there—at least not yet - https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/01/no-the-james-webb-space-telescope-hasnt-found-life-out-there-at-least-not-yet/ "It is anticipated that #JWST observations may lead to the initial identification of potential #biosignatures that could make habitability more or less likely for a given #exoplanet."
