Scientists Discover Planets More Habitable Than Earth

[@SipOfScripture]

Crazy we're able to confidently describe planets that are lightyears away, yet we don't even know what lurks in the deepest parts of our own oceans.

[@manoadamro1768]

tbh It makes perfect sense. You can use a telescope to see though the vacuum of space, but you can't do the same with the ocean, you actually have to go and explore it all inch by inch and building things that can withstand the pressure at the bottom of the ocean is incredibly difficult.

[@dreamerzyx]

I don't think the word "confidently" is the word I'd use. Lot's of "possibilities" and "uncertains" thrown in there. They don't really know.

[@dreamerzyx]

@@manoadamro1768 They aren't sure about any of it. An alien civilization could look at our solar system from afar and surmise that Venus and Mars are "possibly" habitable because they're in the "goldilocks zone", but we all know they aren't.

The more I see videos like this, the more I’m starting to become convinced that humans may not be able to survive somewhere else even with relatively habitable conditions around those stars…For instance those other places mentioned have different gravity levels, different power structure of the stars, different atmospheric pressure etc….Every fiber of our being is in direct relation to the variables/settings of Earth. It likely wouldn’t translate somewhere else. Our bones, blood, skin, muscles etc would all be affected in a negative way. Earth is our home.

[@shaanchaudhry5719]

@@robynliteracy7057 I agree Robyn that’s a great point. When I initially heard about the idea of terraforming Mars the concept seemed interesting and I told myself it makes the most sense that humans need to colonize other planets to increase the chance for the continuation of our species in the long term. But then I started realizing how unbelievably barren/cold/desolate a place like Mars is. Living on Mars would be a nightmare not to mention how ugly the planet is compared to Earth and how the quality of our lives would be exponentially worse even if we survived the toxic atmosphere. There’s a very depressing quality when thinking of leaving Earth and moving backwards from the living standards we are accustomed to. Thanks but no thanks!

There is no active inner core planet in our solar system beside earth. All others are barren, lifeless, unshielded. An electromagnetic shield is the first thing I would require in order to survive on a planet orbiting its sun. Radiation from the sun is so powerful it penetrates the earth's atmosphere creating O3 from O2. Imagine to be exposed to the sun's radiation unshielded. It is an instant death. Burns from radiation and immerse energy levels. Even that far from the sun as we are (or Mars is).

The thing that really gets me about this is that we're only identifying planets as habitable zone based on where life we're used to could exist. There could be life that we could never even perceive, and that life could also never perceive us.

[@RogueShadows]

True, but I’d hardly call it anthrocentrism. We’re looking for carbon-based life because carbon is extremely common in the universe and easily forms bonds with other atoms, which allow for complex molecules. Due to just basic chemistry carbon-based life would need water and oxygen so we’re looking for that. The next best element to look for is silicon…but it’s only 1/10th as abundant as carbon and forms only a fraction as many compounds (and half of them are _with carbon)._ And all the other elements are even more unlikely. The universe has some fundamental rules to it. I mean yeah sure maybe there’s life out there based on non-Baryonic matter or something, bunch of Photino birds making nuisances of themselves or whatever. But we have no possible way to detect them and no idea how they’d function so there’s no real point in looking. For now, given its abundance, it makes the most sense to stick to looking for carbon-based life.

[@aForkfulOfGold]

@@fitfogey Interesting thought, but I don't think that's very likely tbh. We should not assume that life on other planets would be easier or more stable and sustainable than it was and is on Earth. Other Earth-like planets too would likely experience periods of heavy tectonc activity leading to eruptions and possibly extinction events. They too could be hit by intense bursts of radiation or asteroids. A rogue planet or giant asteroid could pass by close enough to tilt their axis, induce or affect rotation around their own axis, or even change their orbit around their star (fingers crossed that this doesn't occur on Earth for the foreseeable future, lmao). Those things could happen anywhere on any habitable, Earth-like exoplanet. Earth probably is not unique in that regard.

My biggest thing about these videos is it just shows how much we focus on specific planets. While I know we are searching for planets that could host life for humans, we are dismissing other planets that could host other life. We don't even know if any of the Gas Giants have life on their planet cause we can't go there. There is no surface (or at least no known surface) and the gravity would be too much after a certain point is reached. Yet that doesn't mean no life is there at all. Just like how different life has adapted to places on Earth, the same could be said for other planets. This would explain why we haven't found any signs of life outside our own planet. We are only looking for specific conditions that support life. Now you might be asking a particular question. If life is out there, why haven't they made contact with us? The same reason would apply to them. If their planet structure is deems\ed as "inhabitable" to us, they may deem our planet structure to be "inhabitable" for them and thus rule our planet out as a place for life.

At today's rate of travel, it would take us about 851,000 years to travel 23 light years. That is if we were moving at the speed of the fastest current spacecraft we have today. If we continue to develop other craft now in research we could probably cut it down to about 460,000 years so yeah, that's good. Of course, we could travel at the speed of light and get there in 23 years, but since many of the most intelligent people on Earth have said that we may never be able to travel at the speed of light due to time, space and a bunch of other mumbo jumbo physics that tend to get in our way as we approach those speeds, chances are we will never get to those star systems and planets. And here's another thing we need to consider. If we are able to somehow bend time and space and make those trips much shorter (don't hold your breath) then we will enter a whole new area of time travel which is exactly what that will be. Again, something many top physicists say is impossible - the paradoxes presented with time travel, worm holes, and warped space are too numerous and unproven to overcome. The only thing we could hope for is some solution we have yet to even imagine that will allow to make those trips in a reasonable time. Think of the change humans will go through in another 100,000 years. Compare to where we were a 100,000 years ago. If we developed this unknown spacecraft in 200,000 years, it is possible we could pass those earlier versions of humans on their way to the same star system. A version of humans that have spent thousands of generations on a spacecraft would be passed by the planetary version of evolved humans. Weird stuff to think about.
