Microfabricated capillary electrophoresis amino acid chirality analyzer for extraterrestrial exploration.
Chiral separations of fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled amino acids have been performed on a microfabricated capillary electrophoresis chip to explore the feasibility of using such devices to analyze for extinct or extant life signs in extraterrestrial environments. The test system consists of a folded electrophoresis channel (19.0 cm long x 150 microns wide x 20 microns deep) that was photoli...
متن کاملExtraterrestrial microbiology.
I N T H E E F F O R T of devising ways and means of studying the existence of living organisms on other planets, attention must be focussed on microorganisms. This is not entirely due to professi,onal prejudice of microbiology, but is the consequence of accepted realization that microorganisms are responsible for the major amount of turnover of matter on earth and that life of the higher plants...
متن کاملExtraterrestrial intelligence: an international petition.
The human species is now able to communicate with other civilizations in space, if such exist. Using current radioastronomical technology, it is possible for us to receive signals from civilizations no more advanced than we are over a distance of at least many thousands of light years. The cost of a systematic international research effort, using existing radio telescopes, is as low as a few mi...
متن کاملFinding extraterrestrial sites for thermophiles.
Virtually our entire knowledge of the universe comes from two sorts of measurement of the electromagnetic radiation from the stars and galaxies within it; either their flux through relatively wide bandpasses (photometry), or measurements of the shape and wavelength of relatively narrow lines via spectroscopy. These techniques are now being used to discover planets outside our solar system, and ...
متن کاملMission Reachability for Extraterrestrial Rovers
A methodology for the mobility evaluation and mission oriented performance assessment of an autonomous mobile robot is developed. The evaluation strategy uses both time and energy based measures resulting in the development of isochronal/isoenergy contours which characterize the expected mobility of the robot over novel terrain using sample trials on patches of land prior to the mission. This w...
