Lecture 25: The Requirements for Life in the Solar System
Having completed our tour of the Solar System, we now turn to a\ndiscussion of the requirements for life, and where those requirements\nmight be satisfied elsewhere in the Solar System. Some - energy,\ncomplex chemistry, and liquid water - seem obvious, but they are not the\nonly possibilities or considerations. At the end, we will have a short\nlist of possible places to look, some expected, others surprising.\nRecorded live on 2009 Oct 29 in Room 1005 Smith Laboratory on the\nColumbus campus of The Ohio State University.
