本文的目的是表明，我们不一定局限于基于对特定生命形式（无论是类地生命还是外星生命）的识别的实验。此外，通过接受生命的有限现象学定义，可以根据对生命现象（包括我们熟悉的现象）的普遍认识来设计简单的实验。这种方法在生命探测实验中的应用是接下来讨论的基础。
It is the object of this article to show that we are not necessarily limited to experiments based on the recognition of a specific life-form, either Earth-like or alien. Also, that it is possible, by accepting a limited phenomenological definition of life, to design simple experiments from the general recognition of life phenomena, including that with which we are familiar. The application of this approach to experiments in life detection is the basis of the discussion which follows.
