扩大和改善对可居住世界的搜索
Expanding and Improving the Search for Habitable Worlds
摘要:
这篇评论的重点是最近的结果,在推进我们的理解的位置和分布的可居住的地球外环境。我们首先回顾定义可居住的行星/月球环境的质量。我们将这些概念扩展到我们太阳系中潜在的可居住环境,以及目前和未来对那里生物标志物的搜索,重点关注未来探索任务的主要目标:火星,欧罗巴和土卫二。我们研究了我们目前对适合形成宜居行星的行星系统类型的了解,并回顾了目前对太阳系外宜居行星的搜索状况,以及预期未来在灵敏度方面的改进和对太阳系外生命特征的远程探测的准备。
英文摘要:
This review focuses on recent results in advancing our understanding of the location and distribution of habitable exo-Earth environments. We first review the qualities that define a habitable planet/moon environment. We extend these concepts to potentially habitable environments in our own Solar System and the current and future searches for biomarkers there, focusing on the primary targets for future exploratory missions: Mars, Europa, and Enceladus. We examine our current knowledge on the types of planetary systems amenable to the formation of habitable planets, and review the current state of searches for extra-solar habitable planets as well as expected future improvements in sensitivity and preparations for the remote detection of the signatures of life outside our Solar System.
