@CarnegiePlanets @NASAAmes @NASAAstrobio @miquai "We're at the edge of a new era in astrobiology. We've never had more data or more computing power. Now is the moment to bring it all together and finally ask—and maybe answer—the biggest question of all: Are we alone?" -Michael Wong (@miquai) Read more👇 https://t.co/yj32tB3UhX

@CarnegiePlanets @NASAAmes @NASAAstrobio @miquai The team plans to analyze 1,000+ samples—from meteorites to fossils to living organisms—to build a massive open dataset. By training A.I. on these chemical & molecular signatures, scientists hope to reliably tell life from non-life. #OpenData #Astrobiology

The #TIMESworkshop kicked off the morning with dives into dating tools and strategies—bio- & magnetostratigraphy, radioisotopic geochronology, and chemostratigraphy. Basically, a whirlwind tour of how we figure out the age of everything on Earth.
