Controversies Will We Find Another Inhabitable Planet? Will We Find Another Inhabitable Planet?
Claims Last Updated 5 days ago Andrew Fraknoi "I would never say we can never reach the stars and possible habitable planets." Oct 14, 2019 Larissa Palethorpe "[W]e're more likely to detect planets in the habitable zone with TESS [NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite]." May 26, 2024 NASA "Life might turn up in our own neighborhood: beneath the Martian surface, perhaps, or in the dark, subsurface oceans of Jupiter's moon, Europa." Oct 26, 2020 Emily Gilbert TOI 700 system "is one of only a few systems with multiple, small, habitable-zone planets that we know of." Jan 11, 2023 Keming Zhang After the habitable zone moves to around Jupiter and Saturn's orbit, "I think, in that case, humanity could migrate out there." Sep 26, 2024 Dirk Schulze-Makuch "Our sun is actually not the best kind of star for hosting a planet with lots of life on it." Feb 24, 2022 Hiroyuki Tako Ishikawa "The discovery of Gliese 12 b is a stepping stone towards finding potentially habitable planets." Aug 16, 2024 NASA The discovery of several smaller and cooler stars is "the best bet for finding habitable planets." Jan 31, 2024 Ingo Waldmann "[I]t is likely that this is the first discovery [water vapor found on planet K2-18b] of many potentially habitable planets." Sep 11, 2019 Amaury Triaud "[T]his planet [TOI-715 b discovered in February] is for sure in the habitable zone." Feb 20, 2024 Adam Frank "Almost every sun-like star in the galaxy has a planet where life could form." Nov 09, 2020 NASA "Kepler already told us there were billions of planets, but now we know a good chunk of those planets might be rocky and habitable." Oct 29, 2020 Larissa Palethorpe Gliese 12 b is "either in the habitable zone of its star or it is right on the edge of it — so, it could be habitable." May 26, 2024
