抄録(英)
Activities of the JAXA Research Team "Astrobiology Experiments in Earth Orbit" were reported. This research team was originally organized as a working group in 2004, and has been discussed possible experiments on astrobiology by utilizing the ISS and other facilities since then. In 2006, we picked up one of the subjects, and it was proposed to JAXA as the "Tanpopo mission". In 2009, we discussed future missions to study the distribution of microorganisms in space: They include Earth orbits of lower and higher altitude, the Moon, Mars, Europa and Titan. It is important to develop new sensitive techniques to detect and characterize organic compounds and microorganisms. STXM-XANES technique is one of the promising one for ultra micro samples returned from space. Detection of D-/ L-amino acids is important to discuss possible presence of life. New possible separation and pretreatment techniques were discussed. We also discussed domestic and international astrobiology networks.
