Exoplanet Diversity in the Era of Space-based Direct Imaging Missions
Ravi Kopparapu, Eric Hebrard, Rus Belikov +55
This whitepaper discusses the diversity of exoplanets that could be detected by future observations, so that comparative exoplanetology can be performed in the upcoming era of larg…
Exploring Extreme Space Weather Factors of Exoplanetary Habitability
V. S. Airapetian, V. Adibekyan, M. Ansdell +46
It is currently unknown how common life is on exoplanets, or how long planets can remain viable for life. To date, we have a superficial notion of habitability, a necessary first s…
Geoscience and the Search for Life Beyond the Solar System
Rory Barnes, Anat Shahar, Cayman Unterborn +11
How can scientists conclude with high confidence that an exoplanet hosts life? As telescopes come on line over the next 20 years that can directly observe photons from terrestrial…
A procedure for observing rocky exoplanets to maximize the likelihood that atmospheric oxygen will be a biosignature
Steven J. Desch, Stephen Kane, Carey M. Lisse +3
Here we advocate an observational strategy to help prioritize exoplanet observations. It starts with more easily obtained observational data, and ranks exoplanets for more difficul…
Life Beyond the Solar System: Remotely Detectable Biosignatures
Shawn Domagal-Goldman, Nancy Y. Kiang, Niki Parenteau +38
For the first time in human history, we will soon be able to apply the scientific method to the question "Are We Alone?" The rapid advance of exoplanet discovery, planetary systems…
