Description

There are possibly billions of exoplanets in our galaxy, butmost of them will not have any life on them because they are outside of their star’s habitable zone. What is a habitable zone? Why is it so important? Can a planet or moon outside of the habitable zone harbor life? We explore these questions in today’s session.
