Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: VG-. See photos for condition details. Hardcover with dust jacket. DJ is toned and scuffed shows minor wear and bumps along edges as well as foxing spots and soiling. Great clapboards underneath show only toning along edges and spine with a few age spots present, corners li…ghtly bumped. Internal binding is good in text pages are tight. No signatures or bookplates, no library markings, though "Service de Presse" is stamped at the bottom of the title page. The only evidence of handwriting is on the front end page where there is very faint residue from where a price was once penciled in the corner. The remaining pages are toned due to age but are clean and the only other flaw noted involves the pages starting at 145 and all the way to the last end page where there is a small heart-shaped cut out in the lower outside corner area - this issue is well outside of any text blocks. Please note: this book is in French.

Paperback. Condition: New. The search for life in the solar system and beyond has to date been governed by a model based on what we know about life on Earth (terran life). Most of NASA's mission planning is focused on locations where liquid water is possible and emphasizes searches for structures that resemble cells in terran or…ganisms. It is possible, however, that life exists that is based on chemical reactions that do not involve carbon compounds, that occurs in solvents other than water, or that involves oxidation-reduction reactions without oxygen gas. To assist NASA incorporate this possibility in its efforts to search for life, the NRC was asked to carry out a study to evaluate whether nonstandard biochemistry might support life in solar system and conceivable extrasolar environments, and to define areas to guide research in this area. This book presents an exploration of a limited set of hypothetical chemistries of life, a review of current knowledge concerning key questions or hypotheses about nonterran life, and suggestions for future research.

Paperback. Condition: New. In 1997, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) formed the National Astrobiology Institute to coordinate and fund research into the origins, distribution, and fate of life in the universe. A 2002 NRC study of that program, Life in the Universe: An Assessment of U.S. and International…Programs in Astrobiology, raised a number of concerns about the Astrobiology program. In particular, it concluded that areas of astrophysics related to the astronomical environment in which life arose on earth were not well represented in the program. In response to that finding, the Space Studies Board requested the original study committee, the Committee on the Origins and Evolution of Life, to examine ways to augment and integrate astronomy and astrophysics into the Astrobiology program. This report presents the results of that study. It provides a review of the earlier report and related efforts, a detailed examination of the elements of the astrobiology program that would benefit from greater integration and augmentation of astronomy and astrophysics, and an assessment of ways to facilitate the integration of astronomy with other astrobiology disciplines.
