Astrobiology aims to investigate the possibility of life existing elsewhere in the universe, beyond our planet Earth.

While the presence of liquid water, suitable temperature range, and an atmosphere are key factors for habitability, the existence of intelligent life is not directly related to the physical conditions of a planet.

Extremophile Adaptation refers to the ability of certain organisms on Earth to thrive in extreme environments, such as high temperatures, acidic conditions, or extreme cold.

The Kepler Space Telescope was specifically designed to detect exoplanets, particularly those that are Earth-sized and located within the habitable zone of their host stars.

Astrochemistry focuses on understanding the chemical processes and conditions necessary for the formation and evolution of life in the universe.

While the presence of oxygen, methane, and water are potential indicators of life, the discovery of fossils on a planet's surface is not a direct biosignature, as fossils require a long evolutionary history.

Replicators are hypothetical self-replicating molecules that are thought to have been the precursors to life on Earth.

Mesophiles are organisms that thrive in moderate temperatures, while thermophiles, psychrophiles, and acidophiles are extremophiles adapted to extreme temperatures and acidic environments.

Abiogenesis refers to the hypothetical process by which life arose from non-living matter, while biogenesis refers to the origin of life from pre-existing life.

Fossil Hunting is not a viable method for detecting life on other planets, as it requires the presence of fossils, which are unlikely to be found on distant worlds.

The Habitable Zone is the region around a star where conditions are suitable for liquid water to exist on the surface of a planet.

Venus is not considered a prime target for astrobiological exploration due to its extreme surface conditions, including high temperatures and a dense, carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere.

Astrobiology encompasses the study of the distribution, origin, and evolution of life in the universe.

Water-based life is the only known type of life that exists on Earth, while carbon-based, silicon-based, and ammonia-based life are hypothetical forms of life that could potentially exist elsewhere in the universe.
