Subject: 'BIOCOSMOS: Our Sense of Place, Our Sense of Life in the Universe'
Date: Jan 18, 2018
The international workshop 'BIOCOSMOS: Our Sense of Place, our Sense of Life in the Universe' will take place at Biosphere 2 on February 1 and February 2, 2018. It aims to break through disciplinary boundaries by bringing together a mix of astronomers, Earth scientists, ecologists and anthropologists to discuss how our understanding of life and nature as integrated systems advances and evolves as we become able to assemble and control complex artificial ecosystems on Earth, prepare to send and use such ecosystems on the Moon and Mars, search for alien life and ecosystems on other planets and planetary bodies, and push the boundaries of our exploration of the distant universe.
