Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta This is the journal of The Geochemical Society and The Meteoritical Society. This journal publishes research papers in a wide range of subjects in terrestrial geochemistry, meteoritics, and planetary geochemistry.
Earth and Planetary Science Letters This journal covers research into all aspects of lunar studies, plate tectonics, ocean floor spreading, and
continental drift, as well as basic studies of the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of the Earth's crust and mantle, the atmosphere and the hydrosphere.
Advances in Space Research This page contains the index of books published in this series which cover all aspects of space research.
International Astronomical Union (IAU) Information Bulletins This page contains a link to the current issue of the IAU Bulletion plus links to back issues. This Bulletin contains news and information about the IAU and its activities.
Origins of Life and Evolution of the Biosphere This is the official journal of the International Society for the Study of the Origin of Life and covers all aspects of this topic form the origin of biogemic compounds and the origin of life to life in extreme environments and biosphere dynamics.
Advances in Space Research (includes Cospar Information Bulletin) The Official Journal of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR), a Scientific Committee of the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU). Fields covered by this journal: Space Studies of the Earth's Surface, Meteorology and Climate, Space Studies of the Earth-Moon System, Planets and Small Bodies of the Solar System, Space Studies of the Upper Atmospheres of the Earth and Planets, Space Plasmas in the Solar System, Research in Astrophysics from Space, Materials Sciences in Space, and Life Sciences as Related to Space.
Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics This journal is concerned with the interdisciplinary science of the Earth's atmospheric and space environment. Papers dealing with remote sensing carried out from the ground or with in situ studies made from rockets or from satellites orbiting the Earth are published.
Planetary and Space Science This journal publishes articles on ground-based
and space-borne instrumentation and laboratory simulation of solar system processes including cosmochemistry and origin, small bodies, dust and rings, terrestrial and outer planets and satellites, planetary atmospheres, magnetospheres, and ionospheres, exobiology, celestial mechanics, and the history of planetary and space research.
Bioastronomie This website is in English and German and contains a wide array of links and oher information on astrobiology.
Marsbugs - The Electronic Astrobiology Newsletter This newsletter provides a channel of information for scientists, educators and other persons interested in life sciences as they relate to planetary science and space exploration. This newsletter is not intended to replace peer-reviewed journals, but to supplement them.
Cosmic Ancestry: Panspermia This website deals exhaustively with the idea that life can travel between worlds by natural means - an old idea gaining new interest. It covers a wide range of astrobiology and astrochemistry topics and is updated on a regular basis.
Planetary Biology This website is dedicated to the discovery, exploration and analysis of planetary biology theory. This promising theory consolidates scientific knowledge from many disciplines and focuses it onto the phenomenon of life-bearing worlds.
The Astrobiology, Extreme Environments and Terraformation Index An exhaustive set of links and online bibliography covering a broad range of astrobiology topics.

A Farwell to Earth from the Galileo Homepage at JPL. A description of Galileo's encounter with earth, viewed as an experiment to see if we could detect life on a similar planet using similar instrumentation. Reference to Carl Sagan's book "The Pale Blue Dot" and his chapter on this topic.
Optimization of a 2005 sample return for Mars exopaleontology This research paper at NASA Ames Research Center examines the identification, collection, and transport of samples from Mars so as to maximize the ability to perform exopaleontology research.
Exopaleontology at the Pathfinder Landing Site This research paper at NASA Ames Research Center examines the Mars Pathfinder landing site and the opportunities available for exopaleontology and other astrobiology research.
Beagle 2: A lander for Mars
Beagle 2 is a proposed lander to be included on ESA's Mars Express mission designed to aid in the search for the chemical evidence of life (past or present) on Mars. The Open University, UK.

International Astronomical Union The mission of the International Astronomical Union IAU is to promote and safeguard the science of astronomy in all its aspects through international cooperation. The IAU is also the sole internationally recognised authority for assigning designations to celestial bodies and surface features on such bodies.
The UK Exobiology Network The aim of this website is to "To facilitate communication between those involved in the science of exobiology in the UK."
IAU Commission 51 - Bioastronomy: Search for Extraterrestrial Life The objectives of the commission include the search for planets around other stars, radio transmissions, intentional or unintentional, of extraterrestrial origin, biologically relevant interstellar molecules and the study of their
formation processes, and the detection methods for potential spectroscopic evidence of biological activity, the coordination of efforts in all these areas at the international level. [IAU Division III Planetary Systems Sciences].
