Earth-like planets are the most likely to host life. Theoretically, as long as there is an atmosphere, there can be life.
-
The jury is inconclusive, there are organisms that live near submarine volcanoes, where there is no oxygen, and they can survive with only a few chemicals.

1. Kepler-452b
When it comes to planets that have been confirmed to have life, I believe many friends will think of Kepler-452B, which was discovered by NASA in 2015, its diameter is times that of the Earth, and the similarity index with the Earth is 1400 light-years away from the Earth. Not only that, Kepler-452b may also have an atmosphere and flowing water, so it is also known as the "cousin of the earth".
2. Gliese 581D
In addition, the discovery of Gliese 581D in 2007 is also not negligible, it is about light years away from the Earth, and scientists believe that it is the most likely "super-Earth" of life. But unfortunately, humans can only observe these Earth-like planets, but cannot know whether there is life on them.
3. Callisto.
In the scientific community, elements such as liquid water, carbon, and thermal energy are considered to be the three major elements of life, and on Jupiter's moon Callisto, it has been measured by probes that its atmosphere and rock mass are rich in carbon compounds, so it is very likely to give birth to life. However, Callisto is extremely cold, with a temperature of around minus 178 degrees, and humans will certainly not be able to survive on it.
4. Enceladus.
5. Titan.
Through detection, scientists have confirmed that Titan has an atmosphere that contains oxygen and carbon dioxide, of which oxygen accounts for more than 70% and carbon dioxide accounts for about 30%. However, the oxygen concentration on Titan is much lower than that of the Earth, only 1 trillionth of the Earth's concentration, so with the current conditions, Titan is just one of the conditions suitable for human habitation.

It is Saturn's sixth moon, Titan. As it stands, Titan is the only confirmed moon with signs of life other than Earth. On this planet, scientists have found that the satellite is almost Earth-like through the data transmitted by the Cassini probe.
Not only the atmosphere, oceans, rivers, lakes, but even plate movements.
On Titan, the planetary environment also contributes to the formation of phospholipids, which means that there may be organisms on the planet, as phospholipids are important substances that make up the cells of living organisms on Earth.
There are various indications that Titan is indeed the only planet with life other than Earth, but scientists have put forward their own conjectures that the life forms on Titan should be mainly small organisms, and there are no large organisms.
Because it is the only moon in the solar system with a dense atmosphere, it is highly suspected of life, and scientists have speculated that methane in the atmosphere may be the basis for life. Titan can be seen as a time machine that helps to understand the earliest days of the Earth and unravel the mystery of how life came into being.
Titan's surface gravity is extremely low, comparable to that of the Moon, but it has a dense atmosphere with a surface atmospheric pressure about twice that of the Earth, a peculiar phenomenon that is a good subject for studying planetary atmospheres. At the same time, the thick atmosphere combined with fairly low surface gravity makes landing and take-off easier.

At present, the only planet that has been confirmed to have life is Titan, which is the sixth moon of Saturn, which is called Titan. Titan is the largest of Saturn's moons and the second largest moon in the solar system (the first being the Moon). Although Titan is less massive than the Moon, it has a thick atmosphere that barely leaks from the Moon.
Scientists have found that the satellite resembles the Earth. It has an atmosphere, oceans, rivers, lakes, and even plate movements. As a result, Titan is the only moon in the solar system other than Earth to have a liquid outside the surface.
Currently, scientists have discovered complex chemical reactions in Titan's atmosphere, which means that complex life is likely to exist on this planet. And on Titan, its environment also contributes to the formation of phospholipids, which are important substances that make up the cells of living organisms on Earth. If life exists, then it is likely that they will feed on liquid alkanes and feast hydrocarbons.
Scientists believe that at present, Titan's life forms should be dominated by small organisms, and there are no large organisms.

Among the planets in and around the solar system that human beings have explored at present, the planets that are most likely to have life are mainly as follows:1Mars:
Mars may have basic life forms such as microbes. There was evidence of liquid water on the surface of Mars, as well as an abundance of organic matter, which created the conditions for the origin of life. Scientists have found that Mars once had ancient microbial remains, but this discovery is controversial and more evidence is needed to confirm it.
2.Europa (Jupiter's moon): There is a liquid ocean beneath the surface of Europa, which provides the necessary environment for life to survive.
Although unlikely, there may be single-celled life on the Europa seafloor. The absence of a simple beam would help confirm this suspicion. 3.
Titan (Saturn's Moon): Titan has complex organic molecules in its atmosphere and liquid methane lakes on its surface. Despite the extremely harsh environment, Titan is considered one of the most likely places in the solar system to host life, potentially giving birth to methane-based life forms.
4.Exoplanets: Of the more than 4,000 exoplanets that have been discovered, some terrestrial planets are located in "habitable zones" suitable for life from their stars.
Planets like Proxima Centauri B and Ross 128 B are considered exoplanets with the most likely presence of life. In the future, more powerful telescopes will be deployed to observe it in the hope of finding more signs of extraphyletic life. In addition, Venus, Titan, etc. have also been thought to have a certain possibility of life.
However, at present, due to the extremely harsh environmental conditions, the possibility of life is low. Future space exploration programs will focus on Mars, Zenju, Ganymede, and Ranga.
2. Life searches in areas such as Titan, with a view to finding conclusive evidence of extraterrestrial life. Finding a second Earth, a third life system is considered one of the pinnacle achievements of future space exploration. If you have any questions or would like a more in-depth discussion on the path of space exploration, please feel free to do so.
I will provide you with detailed knowledge and analysis. Thank you! I will do my best to walk with you towards the unknown universe of human exploration.
I have been engaged in astronomy science for 6 years, and now your question. >>>More
Among the nine planets in the solar system, the light blue earth is the only planet full of life, and nearly two million species of life are active in its mountains, oceans, forests, blue skies, and poles, and it is a well-deserved paradise of life. But why does life love the earth so much? >>>More
There must be. Because there are 100 billion stars in one galaxy. >>>More
Friend, I'm going to explain to you, I hope you will give me a reward, there are planets, there are aliens, and planets must have the same conditions as the earth, for example, light, the sun is a star, right, if the planet is not illuminated by luminous objects, it is impossible to survive without luminous objects, if the star is too big, the life will be short, too small, but it is difficult to provide heat to other planets, and it is difficult to form an ecosphere on its planet, and only when the mass is at the mass of the sun, that is, the sun-type star system, it is possible to give birth to life, which is only a quarter of our galaxy Second, if the star is really sun-type, other conditions must be met: First, in the Milky Way, about 60 percent of the sun-type stars appear in pairs with other stars, and only when the sun-type star is in phase with a small star or another sun-type star, it is possible to have an ecosphere, but only two-thirds of our Milky Way has this condition, and secondly, one of the prerequisites for giving birth to life must contain carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, these "life elements", and such abundance can only be found in the outer periphery of the Milky Way And after countless supernova explosions, Su Wei's second-generation star family i stars are rarely qualified to do so, accounting for only one-tenth of one-quarter If all of the above requirements are met, there is only a one-third chance of snuggling up to this planet Fourth, the planet must be massive enough to stabilize an atmosphere, the eccentricity of the planet's orbit is guaranteed to be able to withstand life on the planet on a small scale, there can be no land on the planet, and there can be too little land for life to have a place for life to evolve, and the age of the planet must also be there Four or five billion years of lifespan to have time for life to evolve -- and if you set that it's less than one percent of all stars, then in the Milky Way, there are 100 million to 1 billion planets with life. But for this kind of estimation, scientists ask a fatal question: Do the conditions of human life have to be all in the form I said? For example, if you don't have oxygen, you don't have stars on a planet, and life on it can't live. Further research is to be carried out. >>>More
Do aliens exist?
Edgar Mitchell, a 77-year-old former astronaut, landed on the moon in 1971 aboard the Apollo 14 spacecraft, becoming the sixth man in the world to land on the moon. Shockingly, Mitchell revealed the first amazing inside story in an interview a few days ago - when he returned to the "Apollo 14" capsule from the moon, he encountered aliens! The Mitchell investigation found that aliens have been in contact with humans many times since the 40s of the last century, but the United States has been hiding these secrets for 60 years. >>>More
