Fluid Inclusion Studies of Chemosynthetic Carbonates: Strategy for Seeking Life on Mars
Astrobiology is a field that investigates the potential of fluid inclusions in minerals from other worlds. These inclusions are microscopic chambers that capture and preserve ambient fluids during mineral precipitation, potentially including biosignatures and physical remains of extra-terrestrial life. The researchers’ work, which centres on chemosynthetic carbonates and other surficial rock types, utilises cutting-edge technology to extract and analyse these inclusions, providing a fresh viewpoint in the field of astrobiology using a Linkam THM600 stage, the predecessor to the Linkam THMS600 stage.
