The Biology of Biosignature Detection

Written By Devan Nisson

The final report from the Keck Institute of Space Science’s KISS Study - ‘The Biology of Biosignature Detection’ was published. This study outlines workshop efforts from years 1 (2023) and 2 (2024) to organize and communicate the best approach for biosignature detection of extant and extinct life on Mars and other remote planetary systems. This included a detailed roadmap for agnostic detection via specific instrumentation and experimental approaches.
