Abstract

Astrobiology is a truly interdisciplinary science, which resorts to many scientific disciplines. In the early days of space travel this field was also named exobiology.

I believe in aliens. I think it would be way too selfish of us as mankind to believe we are the only lifeforms in the universe.
