L55-1: From theearth: Greetings

Recentdevelopments in astronomy have made it possible to detect planets in our ownMilky Way and in other galaxies. This is a major achievement because, inrelative terms, planets are very small and do not emit light. Finding planetsis proving hard enough, but finding life on them will prove infinitely moredifficult. The first question to answer is whether a planet can actuallysupport life. In our own solar system, for example, Venus is far too hot andMars is far too cold to support life. Only the Earth provides ideal conditions,and even here it has taken more than 4 billion years for plant and animal lifeto evolve. Whether a planet can support life depends on the size and brightnessof its star, that is its 'sun'. Imagine a star up to 20 times larger, brighterand hotter than our own sun. A planet would have to be a very long way from itto be capable of supporting life.
