- Objective 1.2: Indirect and direct astronomical observations of extrasolar habitable planets (1 reports)
- Objective 2.1: Mars exploration (1 reports)
- Objective 2.2: Outer Solar System exploration (2 reports)
- Objective 3.1: Sources of prebiotic materials and catalysts (13 reports)
- Objective 3.3: Origins of energy transduction (1 reports)
- Objective 3.4: Origins of cellularity and protobiological systems (1 reports)

Goal 1: Understand the nature and distribution of habitable environments in the Universe
Goal 2: Explore for past or present habitable environments, prebiotic chemistry and signs of life elsewhere in our Solar System
Goal 3: Understand how life originates from cosmic and planetary precursors
Goal 4: Understand how past life on Earth interacted with its changing planetary and Solar System environment
Goal 7: Determine how to recognize signatures of life on other worlds and on early Earth
