Life Detection Instruments

Life detection instruments are tools used by scientists to identify signs of life beyond Earth or in extreme environments. They analyze samples for biological markers such as specific organic molecules, cellular structures, or metabolic activity. These instruments often include microscopes, chemical sensors, or spectrometers that can detect and measure these signs with high sensitivity. Their goal is to find evidence of living organisms or remnants of past life, helping us understand where life might exist in the universe or how it survives in harsh conditions on Earth.
