Chemical methods for searching for evidence of extra-terrestrial life.
This paper describes the chemical concepts used for the purpose of detecting life in extra-terrestrial situations. These methods, developed initially within the oil industry, have been used to determine when life began on Earth and for investigating the Moon and Mars via space missions. In the case of Mars, the Viking missions led to the realization that we had meteorites from Mars on Earth. Th...
متن کاملWhy I have an extra-terrestrial ancestor
The aim of this note, popular in nature, is to generate some interests in fuzzy logic and approximate reasoning theory. To do this we show that fuzzy logic is an useful tool to give a solution to some famous paradoxes as the Heap paradox, the Bald Man paradox and Poincaré paradox of the indiscernibility (see Goguen [1968/69], Höhle [1991], Gerla [2008]). Also, we suggest new paradoxes. These pa...
متن کاملThe search for extra-terrestrial intelligence.
Modern history of the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence is reviewed. The history of radio searches is discussed, as well as the major advances that have occurred in radio searches and prospects for new instruments and search strategies. Recent recognition that searches for optical and infrared signals make sense, and the reasons for this are described, as well as the equipment and speci...
متن کاملFear, pandemonium, equanimity and delight: human responses to extra-terrestrial life.
How will people respond to the discovery of extra-terrestrial life? Potentially useful resources for addressing this question include historical prototypes, disaster studies and survey research. Reactions will depend on the interplay of the characteristics of the newly found life, the unfolding of the discovery, the context and content of the message and human information processing as shaped b...
متن کاملDiscovery of extra-terrestrial life: assessment by scales of its importance and associated risks.
The Rio Scale accepted by the SETI Committee of the International Academy of Astronautics in 2002 is intended for use in evaluating the impact on society of any announcement regarding the discovery of evidence of extra-terrestrial (ET) intelligence. The Rio Scale is mathematically defined using three parameters (class of phenomenon, type of discovery and distance) and a δ factor, the assumed cr...
