Life As It Could Be: Astrobiology, Synthetic Biology, and the Future of Life

What is life? How might life have emerged on Earth or on other worlds? And how might we engineer the future of life—what might we make life to be? 

In this video scientists, scholars, artists and journalists have come together for a special symposium to discuss these questions. 

Hosted by Luis Campos, the current Baruch S. Blumberg NASA/Library of Congress chair in astrobiology at the Library’s John W. Kluge Center.
