寻找生命和新的逻辑
The search for life and a new logic
摘要:
探索宇宙是人类最伟大的统一主题之一。这项努力的一部分是寻找外星生命。但是我们找到生命的可能性有多大,或者如果我们找到了,它会和我们自己相似吗?因此我们如何知道在哪里以及如何去看?我们给出的推理,已被用来缩小和集中这种搜索的排序的例子,我们认为,明显的扩展,逻辑框架将导致更大的成功。
英文摘要:
Exploring the Universe is one of the great unifying themes of humanity. Part of this endeavour is the search for extraterrestrial life. But how likely is it that we will find life, or that if we do it will be similar to ourselves? And therefore how do we know where and how to look? We give examples of the sort of reasoning that has been used to narrow and focus this search and we argue that obvious extensions to that logical framework will result in greater success.
