DESCRIPTION:Is there life beyond planet Earth? - one of the great question
 s of all time. In the last twenty years we have come a long way towards an
 swering this question. We find living organisms in extreme environments on
  Earth\, evidence for possible habitats in unexpected places in our solar 
 system and nearly 6000 planets orbiting other stars. By careful observatio
 n we know something about the physical properties of these planets\, wheth
 er they are dense and rocky like our Earth or gas giants like Jupiter. The
  James Webb Telescope is opening a new dimension of research as it enables
  us to detect molecules in the atmosphere of some of these planets. This t
 alk will bring us up to date with the latest findings.\n\nAll welcome. Mor
