Abstract

A commentary on Eugen Bacon's "Human Beans," focusing upon the question of how far down we can go with notions of Indignity and belonging. Is there a sense of the latter that is relevant to astrobiology and the ways in which we think about microbial life on other worlds? The thought here is that this extension may make sense...up to a point.
