Abstract
Astrobiology, as an interdisciplinary field, is dedicated to the dual pursuit of searching for extraterrestrial life and unravelling the crucial environmental factors that gave rise to life. This article offers an inclusive overview of recent advancements in astrobiology, highlighting key developments and future directions in the discipline. Our journey begins with exploring the fundamental prerequisites for life's sustenance, with a particular emphasis on the indispensable role of water. From there, we venture into the realms of planetary environments, encompassing celestial bodies such as Mars, Europa, and Titan. Here, we unveil the latest findings regarding their potential habitability, expanding our understanding of the broader cosmic context. Moreover, we delve into life's awe-inspiring adaptability and resilience in the face of extreme conditions, drawing insights from recent discoveries that underscore life's remarkable tenacity. Finally, we engage in thoughtful discourse on the quest for extraterrestrial intelligence while acknowledging the inherent limitations in our pursuit of this profound endeavour.
