This encyclopedia is based on astrobiology articles imported from Wikipedia. I used to work in Wikipedia but have recently been blocked for editing it, in part for adding an article on Possible Present Day Habitats For Life On Mars!
If anyone else wants to join in working on this material - then as a small wiki then we can be a friendlier place here. Your work and expertise will be respected and anyone who wants to help fix things, especially if you are knowledgeable about astrobiology, then you are very welcome indeed.
In topics where there is a wide range of views, such as planetary protection, or the habitability of present day Mars, the aim is to present all the views on the topic. However, unlike Wikipedia, we can also have separate blogs where editors present opinions, original research and so on. I haven't yet worked out how to do that.
For more about the reason for setting up a new encyclopedia for this content, instead of fixing it in Wikipedia itself, see background to this encyclopedia.
