>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 02:48:24 2010 No.1496223 >>1496217 that means that earth like planet are common, so, more probability for wet planets..

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 02:49:24 2010 No.1496229 >>1496217 mars had oceans in the past, venus maybe too, and probably microbes originated there

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 02:53:24 2010 No.1496253 Life can even survive on moons around gas giants. Should earthlike planets include habitable moons?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 02:56:24 2010 No.1496268 Don't you need an atmosphere to have useful life? Don't you need a molten core to have electromagnetic feild that stops solar radiation so you can have useful life? tl;dr, how get molten core?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 02:57:24 2010 No.1496274 >>1496268 Only for life as we know it.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 03:02:24 2010 No.1496301 I agree that the name is deceiving. Should restrict "earth like" to being able to immediately support earth life, or support earth life with a bit of tweaking.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 03:09:24 2010 No.1496328 Is Terra-forming even a feasible option?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 27 03:10:24 2010 No.1496334 >>1496328 Yes. It takes longer than a human life to complete, though. You would have to send people out who are willing to die to set up all the equipment for it to be usable in say, 200 years.

Mars. Unless we come up with a lot of noble gases or nitrogen it won't have a breathable atmosphere (barring slight modifications to inhabitants to increase CO2 tolerance) but we could increase the air pressure and temperature to allow people to walk outside with nothing more than a light jacket and a CO2 scrubber mask.
