Habitability of Exoplanets - Understanding Life Potential Beyond Earth

Watch an in-depth lecture from astrophysicist Martin Turbet exploring the habitability of exoplanets, delivered as part of the 2023 Astrobiology Introductory Course at the Rencontres Exobiologiques pour Doctorants (RED). Gain interdisciplinary insights into how astronomers assess whether distant worlds could potentially harbor life, combining perspectives from astronomy, geology, chemistry, and biology. Designed for PhD students and early-career scientists seeking to expand their understanding of astrobiology, the lecture examines key factors that determine planetary habitability and contributes to broader questions about the origins and distribution of life in the universe.
