The basic problem of exobiology is origin and evolution of life as a space phenomenon. Consideration is given to the facts for the space origin, spreading in the interstellar space of and invasion of the surface of planets by organic compounds, constituents of archetypes of living systems. The authors bring up to discussion the issues of life development under the conditions of Earth, and formation of the main properties of the living organisms differing in the level of organization. Outlined are some international projects on exobiological research in experiments with bio-objects on space platforms.
外生物学的基本问题是作为一种空间现象的生命的起源与演化。文中考虑了关于生命起源于太空、有机化合物在星际空间传播并侵入行星表面(这些有机化合物是生命系统原型的组成部分)的相关事实。作者们提出讨论地球条件下生命发展的问题,以及不同组织水平的生物体主要特性的形成问题。文中概述了一些利用太空平台上的生物对象进行实验的外生物学研究国际项目。
