I can't say there is much that makes Earth special or unique. Earth may harbor life now, but other planets have done so before as well. There is a universe full of planets and potential life. There may possibly be 1 million other Earths out there, much like our own. But if you just want to compare the Earth to the solar system, you could say that it currently has intelligent life, even though there may be life on mars.


When was the Kepler telescope built?

The mission is named in honor of German astronomer Johannes Kepler.
