What is astrobiology? | Space

Astrobiology is the field of science concerned with the study of life in the universe and attempting to solve the mystery of how life emerged on Earth. This includes the search for life beyond Earth, studying environments that could support life as well as investigating interactions between planets and their stars and exploring how this could influence life. 

As such astrobiology is very much an interdisciplinary endeavor encompassing a wide range of scientific fields such as, but not limited to; biology, astronomy, chemistry, geology, atmospheric science, oceanography, and even aeronautical engineering.
