Resumen:
Our interdisciplinary group studies habitability
in planetary bodies, considering the UV radiation as a limiting/promoting factor
for the development of life making use of haloarchaea, which are considered as
model organisms in Astrobiology. Moreover, we proposed a new method that can be
used for the detection of life in situ
in other planetary bodies, based on a new application of microbial fuel cells.
Here we present some of our more recent results.
