According to a recent study, approximately one-third of the planets in the Milky Way Galaxy possess water and thus have conditions conducive to supporting life.
A recent study, utilizing data from the Kepler Mission’s telescopes, suggests that there exists a significant number of smaller, cooler planets with approximately half the mass of the Sun orbiting dwarfs, also known as Red dwarfs.
The study indicates that out of these planets, around two-thirds are likely to be negatively impacted by extreme tidal forces, rendering them inhospitable for life. However, approximately one-third of the planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, which fall within the habitable zone known as the Goldilocks zone, could potentially support life.
