it falls in the habitable zone of its star, it has oxygen in it's atmosphere, and it has water. Those are the seeds of life and Gliese 581g most likely has them all! The only bad thing about it is that this planet is tidally locked. It's always day on one side, always night on the other.

Why do scientists think that Europe might have the conditions for life to develop?

Some signs of intelligent life have been detected in Europe, which makes people suspect the conditions might be right. More research is needed.


What is the difference between Gliese 581 c and Gliese 581 d?

Gliese 581 c is too hot for life because it is closer to its star. This planet is similar to venus. This planet traps too much heat that causes a strong greenhouse effect. The temperature is too high and the atmosphere is nearly all carbon dioxide. Gliese 581 d is at the right distance for liquid water to exist. It is at the Goldilocks zone just like the earth. That means life could exist on Gliese d. This planet have the right temperature. It has a magnetic field and a rich oxygen and nitrogen atmosphere.


Does gliese 581c support life?

yes gliese 581g has bacteria alians and humans could live there too. You can build a spaceship i your lifetime.


Anything about the new planet Gliese 581?

gliese 581 is a star system not a planet however two of the 3 planets there are debatable that one of them could support life


Can the planet Gliese 581 g support life?

Gliese 581 is a red dwarf star that is around 20.5 light years from ours. Up to six planets have been detected in orbit around this star Gliese e, b, c, g, d and f. The fourth one out (Gliese 581 g) is thought to be the most Earth-like planet found so far, if it were to be a rocky planet. It is the right distance from its star in terms of ideal temperature (for liquid water). It is 3.1 to 4.3 times more massive than the earth. It was discovered in September 2010, but is still to be confirmed. It is possible that this planet may harbour life, but the exact surface conditions cannot be confirmed precisely enough to say for sure.


Why do people look for evidence of water on Mars?

If there is water, perhaps we might live there. It suggests that the conditions may be right for life to be possible on that planet.


If the earth had a twin?

It most likely be from a solar system called Gliese 581c. we can see 3 planets orbiting the small sun (smaller than ours) and the first 2 are to close to have liquid water but the one farthest away is in the right conditions to sustain life and is made of vary similar materials to earth.


What known exosolar planet confirmed within the inhabital has had the highest calculated probability of supporting life?

The most likely candidates are (in no order): Gliese 581 g, HD 40307 g, Gliese 163 c, Gliese 581 d, Tau Ceti e, Gliese 667C c, Kepler 22 b, HD 85512 b and Tau Ceti f


Which planet apart from earth may have or had life as you know it?

No other planet in our solar system could support advanced life such as on Earth. Others could support UNintelligent life. Planets in other galaxies that may support life are: OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb , Gliese 581 c, and Gliese 581 d.


What is special about Gliese 581 g?

It is a planet only about 3 times the mass of Earth orbiting in the habitable zone of the star Gliese 581. It is widely considered the most likely extrasolar planet to harbor life.


What is Gliese 581 g?

Otherwise known as Zarmina's world, Gliese 581 G is apparently of the condition to sustain life. It is an estimated 20.3 light years away. It orbits around a red dwarf called Gliese 581. For more info check out the related link


Does Glies 581 has life?

people say that Gliese 581 has oxygen and h2o (water) .Meybe there is life there and they are trying to found out. It has the same temputre has Earth.
