Is Life Beyond Earth Possible?

🌍Recent discoveries suggest that conditions for life may exist in our solar system, with strange worlds and moons with potential for oceans and Earth-like landscapes.

🌌Billions of Earth-like exoplanets have been discovered in our galaxy alone, making it likely that there are Earth-like planets in other galaxies as well.

🌔Moons in our own solar system, such as Europa and Enceladus, have the necessary ingredients for life: water, organic compounds, and an energy source.

🔭The NASA Space Telescope Kepler has revolutionized the search for exoplanets, confirming the existence of thousands of Earth-like planets.

🪐The discovery of life in our own solar system or on distant exoplanets would indicate that the origin of life is a likely event, occurring throughout the universe.
