Four centuries after the Earth was displaced from the centre of the universe by the Copernican revolution, times are ripe for terrestrial life to be set in a cosmic context. This task is felt as a priority by a growing number of scientists working on life's origins and Solar System exploration. The discovery of thousands of exoplanets is giving birth to new, life-oriented fields, such as planetary habitability and the search for atmospheric biomarkers. The Fifth Workshop of the Italian Astrobiology Society will bring together scientists with widely different backgrounds with the aim of discussing fresh results obtained in the above mentioned fields. The Workshop is organized by INAF-Trieste Astronomical Observatory (OATs) in collaboration with the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) and the Science Centre Immaginario Scientifico (IS).
