Add to ORKGFor the first time since Viking, NASA is considering missions that would include life detection as a primary objective, making it critical to develop and evaluate a diverse set of strategies for seeking evidence of life. The central question is: what should be the target of our search that, if found, would constitute a near-certain evidence for life? Since life on icy moons might be quite different from terrestrial life, we should concentrate on features of biological systems that are considered universal and are unlikely to emerge through abiotic means
