Brief review about history of astrobiology

The main idea of this work is to develop a chronological and descriptive historical review in a summarized form about content on astrobiology, which is a research area considered as an emerging science. This is exploratory research that was developed from document review from scientific articles and books, that related to the themes of astrobiology, exobiology and the search for life outside the Earth were used. Based on the research developed, it was possible to collect data related to the vision of other worlds beyond Earth from the ancient Greeks to the present day. Finally, it was possible to conclude that although astrobiology is a recent area of scientific research, the concept and search for life outside the Earth already existed long before the development of modern science.
