Terrestrial Planet Finder : technology development plans and progress
Abstract
One of humanity’s oldest questions is whether life exists elsewhere in the universe. The Terrestrial Planet Finder (TPF) mission will survey stars in our stellar neighborhood to search for planets and perform spectroscopic measurements to identify potential biomarkers in their atmospheres. TPF is currently planned for launch around 2015.
