Ionic Liquid Biospheres
Sara Seager, William Bains, Iaroslav Iakubivskyi +4
Liquid is a fundamental requirement for life as we understand it, but whether that liquid has to be water is not known. We propose the hypothesis that ionic liquids (ILs) and deep…
Warm, water-depleted rocky exoplanets with surface ionic liquids: A proposed class for planetary habitability
Rachana Agrawal, Sara Seager, Iaroslav Iakubivskyi +6
The discovery of thousands of exoplanets and the emergence of telescopes capable of exoplanet atmospheric characterization have intensified the search for habitable worlds. Due to…
Venus Life Finder Habitability Mission: Motivation, Science Objectives, and Instrumentation
Sara Seager, Janusz J. Petkowski, Christopher E. Carr +10
For over half a century, scientists have contemplated the potential existence of life within the clouds of Venus. Unknown chemistry leaves open the possibility that certain regions…
SISPO: Space Imaging Simulator for Proximity Operations
Mihkel Pajusalu, Iaroslav Iakubivskyi, Gabriel Jörg Schwarzkopf +8
This paper describes the architecture and demonstrates the capabilities of a newly developed, physically-based imaging simulator environment called SISPO, developed for small solar…
