Are we alone in the universe, or are there other life forms 'out
there'? This is one of the most scientifically and philosophically
important questions that humanity can ask. Now, in the early 2020s,
we are tantalizingly close to an answer. As this book shows, the
answer will almost certainly be that life forms are to be found
across the Milky Way and beyond. They will be thinly spread, to be
sure. Yet the number of inhabited planets probably runs into the
trillions. Some are close enough for us to detect evidence of life
by analysing their atmospheres. This evidence may be found within a
couple of decades. Its arrival will be momentous. But even before
it arrives we can anticipate what life elsewhere will be like by
examining the ecology and evolution of life on Earth. This book
considers the current state of play in relation to these titanic
issues.
