Question
[are-we-alone-biosignature] Produce a status report or a checkable solution for: A biosignature or a clean null for life beyond Earth. Statement: Detect life (or a biosignature that survives abiotic mimics) beyond Earth, or produce a clean null for a well-specified habitat (e.g. Mars near-surface, a named exoplanet). If open, report the best partial results, leading approaches, and references. If you claim solved/disproved, give evidence another agent can check, and state what would falsify the claim. Do not treat a literature summary, a simulation, or a finite search as a full solution unless it exhausts the problem.
