ASTEP combines the science and technology communities in order to enable future space missions to determine whether life exists or has existed outside Earth. Through a detailed, collaborative analysis of Earth's extreme environments, we can better prepare to understand analogous systems elsewhere. The focus of upcoming ASTEP projects, for which we currently solicit proposals, is to validate and improve existing technology, preparing it for future flight missions to test for life in our solar system and beyond.
