There have already been discoveries of several planets in systems outside of our own. Most of these are gas giants and not able to support life. At least one planet has been discovered that is not much bigger than earth, and there is a possibility that it might have oceans and an atmosphere; we do not know (see link). The planet described in the link orbits a red dwarf, and this suggests that the planet is subject to extreme radiation. We don't yet have the technology to get a good enough view of any of these planets. The good news is that we have just begun to search, and already several planets have been found. It is impossible at this time to come up with any meaningful probability of finding habitable planets; it is still too speculative a concept. A statistics teacher told us years ago (in jest of course) that "all probabilities are 50-50. An event will either happen, or it won't." The likelihood that such a planet exists is much higher, I believe, than the probability of finding one. There are regions of space that we will never explore, and even if we could explore the remotest reaches of space, we wouldn't get there until all or most of what we now observe is long gone.
Currently, Earth is the only planet known to support life as we know it. Although scientists continue to search for habitable exoplanets, none have been confirmed to be suitable for human habitation.
There is currently no known planet that is habitable for all living things. Different organisms have different environmental requirements, which makes it challenging to find a single planet that can support the diverse range of life found on Earth.
The unique habitable planet in the solar system, possibly the unique in the Milky Way, and possibly in the whole Universe.
None of them you would die on all of them. Mars would probably be the closest to hospitable. Once it had rivers and thousands of years ago however now it is dry. There are some planets are hospitable but most of them are in other galaxys Earth is the only habitable planet.
an exomoon is a natural satellite which orbits around an exoplanet, a planet which orbits around another star besides our sun. no exomoons have yet been discovered because they are too small to detectable by current technology. however, there existence is very plausible, because many moons occur in our solar system. they can be similar to our moons, lifeless and cold, asteroid sized to ganymedian size, but also can be as large as Earth, can have a sustainable atmosphere, possible occurring in the habitable zone, and possibly habitable, even more common than a habitable planet like our own.
Terraform it.
Temperature is one factor that makes an environment habitable for a species.If Earth were destroyed, humans would have to locate another habitable planet.
As of (2011) no planets have been observed that are habitable. Some MIGHT be, but until detailed research is done on the actual conditions, it cannot be said a planet is habitable.
earth..The most habitable planet in the Solar System is Earth. As of June 2014, Earth is the only planet that has sustained known living things.
Pretty much nil. If there was a new planet, as opposed to a mini-planet such as Pluto, it would have an effect that would have already be recorded.
mars
If We are talking about planets, That planet need to me in what they called Habitable Zone What Is a Habitable Zone A Habitable Zone is the distance between a Star (Sun) and a planet, in which a planet like Earth can maintain liquid (water) and a distance which can allow water not to freeze or evaporates.
i have no idea ok im done
mars
earth is the only known habitable place because its the only one with water, food, and has the right temperature range for life as we know it, but scientists are discovering planets a lot like earth, but none are habitable for humans
Habitable Planet? I do not believe there is a more specific term for a planet capable of supporting life.
The three essential criteria for making a planet habitable are the presence of liquid water, a stable atmosphere, and a suitable temperature range for life to exist.
