"Follow the Energy" Approach to Guide Exploration for
Extraterrestrial Life Forms

http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.nl.html?pid=24225

"All conceivable life forms, whether earthly or extraterrestrial,
require an energy source, and scientists are increasingly
employing a "Follow the Energy" approach in the search
for signs of habitability and life beyond Earth, as described
in a report in the December 2007 Special Issue (Volume 7,
Number 6) of Astrobiology, a peer-reviewed journal published
by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc."
