( Examines each of these parameters in crucial depth and ...)
Examines each of these parameters in crucial depth and makes the argument that life forms we would recognize may be more common in our solar system than many assume. Considers exotic forms of life that would not have to rely on carbon as the basic chemical element, solar energy as the main energy source, or water as the primary solvent and the question of detecting bio- and geosignatures of such life forms, ranging from earth environments to deep space. Seeks an operational definition of life and investigate the realm of possibilities that nature offers to realize this very special state of matter. Avoids scientific jargon wherever possible to make this intrinsically interdisciplinary subject understandable to a broad range of readers.

Schulze-Makuch, Dirk was born on January 29, 1964 in Giessen, Hessen, Germany. Arrived in United States, 1991. Son of Manfred Schulze and Inge Doerr.
Bachelor of Science in Geology, Justus-Liebig University, Giessen, Germany, 1988. Master of Science in Geology, Justus-Liebig University, Giessen, Germany, 1991. Doctor of Philosophy in Geophysical Society, University Wisconsin, Milwaukee, 1996.
He is best known for his publications on extraterrestrial life, being coauthor of four books on the topic: A One Way Mission to Mars: Colonizing the Red Planet (2011), We Are Not Alone: Why We Have Already Foundation Extraterrestrial Life (2010), Cosmic Biology: How Life could Evolve on Other Worlds (2010), and Life in the Universe: Expectations and Constraints (2004, 2008). In 2012 he published with David Darling Nine Strange Ways the World Could End. In 2013 he published the second edition of his science fiction novel Alien Encounter.
Together with Paul Davies he proposed in 2010 exploration of Mars by a one-way trip to the planet.
His upbringing was in Giessen, Germany, where he received his Diplom-Degree (Mississippi) in Geology from Justus Liebig University in 1991. After having worked as Senior Project Hydrogeologist at Envirogen, a Princeton-based research and consulting firm, for which he investigated subsurface hydrocarbon spills, he became in 1997 Adjunct Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Louisiana Crosse.
In 1998 he joined the University of Texas at El Paso as assistant professor, investigating microbe and chemical transport in groundwater, and microbial interaction in a planetary environment. From there he joined Washington State University in 2004: first as Associate Professor, since 2010 as Professor at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, with focus on astrobiology and planetary habitability.
Schulze-Makuch"s research interests and publications range from astrobiology, hydrobiology, archeology, to cancer.
To the viewer he may be best known for his work in astrobiology, in particular the possible existence of life on Venus, Mars, Titan, Europa and Io. His book Life in the Universe (with L North Irwin) considers alternative physiologies for extraterrestrial life. Removal of Biological Pathogens Using Surfactant Modified Zeolite.
