A discussion is under way about which biological organisms would make the best candidates for humanity's first missions beyond the solar system, arguing that humans themselves are unlikely to be the first biological astronauts sent that far. The piece points to research on hardy life forms suited to long-duration interstellar conditions, prompting debate about what future deep-space exploration might actually look like.
Why now: Ongoing interest in interstellar travel and speculation about non-human biological astronauts is driving the conversation.
