Liquid water on planets with a primordial atmosphere can be long-lastingMaltagliati, LucaNature Astronomy
Low-mass planets with a primordial atmosphere of hydrogen and helium might have the temperatures and pressures that allow water in the liquid phase. The presence of liquid water is favorable for life, so that these planets potentially harbor exotic habitats for billions of ye...
Maintaining liquid water on the planet’s surface for long periods, as might be required for the evolution of life, can be impossible beyond the HZ, and even within it if there’s no atmosphere with a sufficient greenhouse effect such as in the case of Mars. Producing liquid water by subg...
Astronomers have long thought that the best place for life as we know it is a planet in the "habitable zone" - the range of orbits that leads to planets with liquid water - surrounding a main sequence star like our sun. Science fiction writers know better - and now astronomers are ...
The first planet with a mass comparable to Earth and an orbit consistent with liquid water was reported in 2014 [388], and about twenty so-called habitable planets are now known [389]. The inventory of exoplanets is thus enormous, with thousands of detections already reported [390]. More...
Planets that orbit close to their stars would be too scorching hot to have life, so to find out if such planetary systems might also have planets in the habitable zone with the potential for liquid water and life, a group of researchers from the Australian National University and the Ni...
D Our Milky Way Galaxy may be home to 2 billion planets that have the right conditions to support life. Thes planets have the correct temperature for liquid water. While no one knows what alien life would look like, if it is anything like life on earth, it would need water to keep al...
Earthis the only known habitable planet with a breathable atmosphere, liquid water and a protective magnetic field. Marshas a thin atmosphere and a desolate landscape. Giant Planets Jupiter,Saturn,UranusandNeptuneare the four giant planets known as Jovian planets, all consisting mainly of hydrogen ...

with roughly a third of these rocky M-dwarf planets orbiting within the habitable zone, where they have the potential to support liquid water on their surfaces. Theoretical studies have also quantified the effect on climate and habitability of the interaction between the spectral energy distribution ...
