Cosmobiology: Recent Progress in Cosmology, Exoplanets, and the Astrobiological Prerequisites for Life - Livestream

Recent progress in cosmology - the birth and evolution of the universe as one system - and the discovery of so many planets around other stars is lending new prominence to the question “Are we alone?” Dr. Lineweaver will review this progress we are making in understanding how life fits into the bigger cosmic picture and will try to answer the question: What can life on Earth tell us about life elsewhere in the universe?

Speaker: Astrobiologist Charles Lineweaver is an honorary associate professor at the Australian National University’s Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics and Research School of Earth Science.
