An autonomous strategy for life detection on icy worlds using Exo-AUV
Sydney, Australia (SPX) Jan 06, 2025
Icy moons like Europa and Enceladus offer intriguing environments for studying potential extraterrestrial life. These environments, particularly the icy shell, ice-water interface, and seafloor, are considered prime regions for identifying robust biosignatures, extant life, and prebiotic chemical systems. Extraterrestrial Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (Exo-AUVs) play a critical role in these ex
