The Astrobiology Society of Britain (http://www.astrobiologysociety.org/) held its second conference (Life Here, There and Everywhere) in April 2006. The meeting was hosted by the University of Kent and took place on campus in Canterbury from 18–21 April. A total of 48 abstracts were submitted to the meeting. The final schedule featured 35 talks and 14 posters on a range of topics which included Mars, the Moon, comets, exoplanets, impacts, outreach and analytic techniques – all with an astrobiology flavour. With 62 attendees (including overseas delegates from Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Australia and the United States) the meeting also allowed for strong social interaction (and the building of new collaborations and networking) as well as showcasing ongoing research in the field.
