3 Threats That Could Lead To The End Of Humanity, One More Terrifying Than The Other, And One Is Emerging

How long can humans survive on earth? This is a question that many of us want to know, and i believe that we do not want to wake up to a "Purgatory" Like venus, and hope that the earth can remain alive forever, so that we humans can continue and our generations can survive on earth forever. If the earth's environment were to change drastically and become an extremely hot planet like venus or mercury, then naturally everything in the world, including humans, would not be able to exist.

What Is So Special About Gliese 581g, Thought To Be The Most Earth-Like Exoplanet Known?

It has been billions of years since life appeared on earth, and although there are seven planets in our solar system in addition to earth, as well as a number of dwarf planets, moons and other relatively large bodies, so far we have not found alien life on any other planet in our solar system for the time being. Even mars, another earth-like planet in the habitable zone of our solar system, has not found a single sign of life. Could it be that life on earth is really unique and no other planet is allowed to have life?

What Exactly Have Scientists Discovered And Why Are They So Convinced That Octopuses May Not Be Earth's Creatures?

Since the discovery of the first exoplanet in the 1990s, scientists have found more than 4,000 exoplanets, some like the giant gas planets of our solar system, and others like earth-like planets. Some exoplanets may have very harsh environments, perhaps as hot as venus or mercury, or as extremely cold as other planets. Of course there are also exoplanets that may have relatively suitable temperatures, may be located in the habitable zone of a star system, are a potentially habitable planet, and may even be a living planet.
