Earth-like gas giant moon. Artwork of an Earth-like moon (upper right) of a Jovian extrasolar gas giant planet. Two other moons are at lower left. An alien (extrasolar) planet has to fit a narrow range of sizes and distances from its star if it is to have a surface temperature suitable for liquid water,and to retain an atmosphere. The number of other habitable planets in the Milky Way galaxy is not known,but has been estimated at anything between 1 (just Earth) and as many as 10 billion. Many planets have already been discovered orbiting nearby stars | |
