Next steps: understand to what extent chemical atmospheric and surface conditions can be characterised on such planets with LIFE, to enable a detailed survey of what distinguishes abiotic from potentially biotic worlds. 🧬👾 ★ 1 This is great news for using exoplanets surveys to better understand the chemical and physical conditions that may enable prebiotic chemistry on other worlds, and by that give us further clues on the prevalent conditions to kickstart life … ★ 1 He found that the intrinsic heat of transient magma ocean epochs make these planets detectable (and characterisable!) to vast distances (up to ~100 pc). LIFE will be able to find them typically within minutes in both G and M dwarf systems … In a magma ocean phase rocky planets glow strongly – they are still hot and molten from the primordial heat of formation – and Lorenzo quantified how much of an advantage this is when searching for these planets. ★ 1 Lorenzo – in his very first paper! 🎉🥳 – now tried to understand if LIFE could find the signature of rocky exoplanets in their early 'magma ocean' phase. From studies of the early Earth we think this phase is critically important in setting… LIFE (https://life-space-mission.com) is an initiative to develop a space-based nulling interferometer for characterising potentially habitable exoplanets and search for biosignatures. However, LIFE will be capable of doing a lot more, and… ★ 2 Today on arXiv (https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.13457): Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE). XIV.
