The life zone of a star is a region around a star where the amount of heat is enough to sustain human and plant life. Earth is in the Sun's life zone. Planets farther than that zone are too cold for life to develop there, and planets more close to the star are too hot.

Why do people believe in a supreme being but not in the supernatural or life elsewhere in the rest of the universe?

Belief in a supreme being is actually a belief in the supernatural, but most people who believe in a supreme being are taught or conditioned as to what it is permissible to believe. Sometimes that conditioning extends to not accepting the possibility that life could exist elsewhere in the universe. More important to the issue of belief in the possibility of intelligent life elsewhere in the universe is that this could call into question the entire basis of religions as we know them.


Is there life anywhere else in the whole universe?

What is the reason to believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life?

There are several reasons to believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life. One reason is the vastness of the universe, with billions of galaxies and planets that could potentially support life. Additionally, the discovery of extremophiles on Earth, organisms that can survive in extreme conditions, suggests that life could exist in harsh environments elsewhere in the universe. Finally, ongoing scientific research, such as the discovery of exoplanets in the habitable zone of their stars, provides further evidence that extraterrestrial life may exist.
