The next decade of planetary science and astrobiology holds
tremendous promise. New research will expand our understanding of
our solar system's origins, how planets form and evolve, under what
conditions life can survive, and where to find potentially
habitable environments in our solar system and beyond. Origins,
Worlds, and Life: A Decadal Strategy for Planetary Science and
Astrobiology 2023-2032 highlights key science questions, identifies
priority missions, and presents a comprehensive research strategy
that includes both planetary defense and human exploration. This
report also recommends ways to support the profession as well as
the technologies and infrastructure needed to carry out the
science. Table of Contents Front Matter Summary 1 Introduction to
