Astrobiology subject’s scope is growing leap and bound along with time and is greatly influenced with the shift of human’s curiosity and questions types, that is from are we alone to, how many more?
How many more planets with life? Like our earth. Today with the developments in instrumentation and other tools of astrobiology, humans are successful in introducing various missions at least within our solar system, few of which may not be completely successful but they were the stepping stone of success in astrobiology. Such missions includes Viking program, Beagle 2, Mars Science Laboratory rover concept artwork, Mars Science Laboratory, Exo-Mars Models, Red Dragon etc.
Yes it is true that curiosity is the mother of inventions and today developments in astrobiology is one of the best examples of this. In spite of rare earth hypothesis, astrobiology is growing its arms with right way curiosity. This hypothesis stated that based on Astro-biological findings, multi cellular life forms found on Earth may actually be more of a rarity than scientist initially assumed.In opposition to this, the principle of mediocrity suggested that life and living intelligence like humans on Earth is not exceptional, but rather that it is more than likely to be found on millions or billions of other planets or world.
Biotechnologist and Microbiologist are very important sections of astrobiology projects and its development.
Biotechnologist, Microbiologist, Information technology and robotics are required in astrobiology to find out results at molecular level along with various investigations of life forms during various missions.

Here are few Key Drivers of Astrobiology which are necessarily employing multidisciplinary field and many branches of biology especially Biotechnology, Microbiology and Molecular biology.

-Continued fostering of multidisciplinary science projects
-Renewed interest and curiosity in space exploration, which are driven by a desire to know if there's life 'out there'
-Innovations of new biological, chemical, and geological tools for analyzing samples brought back from space and extreme environments.
-New developments of increasingly sophisticated telescopes, both terrestrial and space-based
-Development of in situ bio-molecules or in the laboratory of synthetic micro-organisms
-Advances in A-Life that inform theoretical biology
-Development of synthetic organisms that use a mechanism other than DNA or RNA to encode information for reproduction

When our own satellite moon is 238,855 miles away from earth, it also indicate that in spaces with distances in light-years, life supporting planets and galaxies can be enormous and Astrobiology will prove it in near future!
