Water is a basic component found in all living cells. Without water, nothing will be able to survive. Thus, life depends on water. Hence, if water is present, there are chances of life thriving due to it.
Scientists found out and then proved it.
scientists say there is but they are not sure.
Why is it difficult for astronomors to learn about mercury
some of the questions scientists have about Mercury come from the limited knowledge we already have
Scientists often look for the molecule water when investigating the possibility of life on other planets. Water is essential for all known forms of life and its presence can indicate the potential for habitability on other planets.
Yes. On July 3rd 2008 The MESSENGER scooped up ions along Mercury's surface. Among the ions it scooped up they discovered water. This reaffirmed scientists beliefs that Mercury has a liquid core. Because Mercury has little axis tilt, they believe that water ice is present in the bottom of craters in Mercury's poles.
Scientists do not yet know if Mercury has the element Mercury in it, they need further studies. AKA they have to get more "inside" of Mercury.
Scientists look for molecules such as water, methane, and organic compounds like amino acids or nucleotides when investigating the possibility of life on other planets. These molecules are considered essential for life as we know it.
scientists are saying that element 112, currently called ununbium, will be similar to mercury.
by using telescopes and satellites.
No. there is not enough water on Mercury.
1% of Mercury is water.
