摘要: Since the 1990s over 4000 exoplanets have been discovered: which of them could also develop and harbor life? It is posited that planet must liquid water, a surrounding atmosphere, be both biocompatible possess bioessential elements to habitable. This Colloquium explores what features central star are conducive these requirements with an eye toward optimizing our search for extraterrestrial life.
