Description: Astronomers are at odds over what makes exoplanets “habitable.” These days, astronomers barely bat an eyelid when they find a new exoplanet: there have been nearly 2,000 discovered in the last 10 years, up from roughly 100 in the previous 10 years. Nonetheless, astronomers were intrigued by a distant world...
