Most found so far are very large, very hot and not at all similar to Earth. But how representative is today's sample of extrasolar planets? And are Earth-like planets likely to be found close enough for us to signal to them? Andrew Rushby gives some surprising answers....
The book gives insights into the nature of planets or satellites and their potential to harbor life. Different scientific disciplines are searching for the clues to classify planetary bodies as a habitable object and what kind of instruments and what kind of space exploration missions are necessary ...
This would happen when the young, dim star of an icy, lifeless planet -- such as early Earth -- starts warming, becomes Sun-like, and melts the ice on planets orbiting it at just the right distance -- the so-called "Goldilocks" zone. Icy orbs in our own Solar System, including ...
The astronauts went into quarantine when they arrived back onEarth, just in case they were carrying microscopic life back with them!Astronomers call the region around a star where life could exist on planets thehabitable zone. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus① and Neptune are outside the habitablezone ...

根据文章第二段Earth is the only known planet that stays in a perfect position from our Sun to support water in a liquid state.Astronomers call this perfect distance from a star the "habitable (宜居的)" or "Goldilocks zone".(地球是已知的唯一一颗距离太阳很近的行星,它能使水保持液态。天文学...

Astronomers say they are on the point of finding planets like Earth orbiting other stars, which is a key step in determining if we are alone in the universe. A top NASA official and other leading scientists say that within four or five years they should

Thousands of exoplanets,or planets outside our solar system, have been discovered over the past few decades. My research group wanted to understand how habitable these planets are, and whether these exoplanets also have wild obliquities, or whether they have moons to stabilize them like Earth do...
