An international team of scientists came to this conclusion.
Scientists suggest that supernovae may make rocky, Earth-like planets much more common in the cosmos than previously thought. The article, "Earth-like planets may be more common in the universe than previously thought," comes from the website Everything That Matters.
Cosmic-Ray Bath in a Past Supernova Gives Birth to Earth-Like Planets - Astrobiology
A key question in astronomy is how ubiquitous Earth-like rocky planets are. The formation of terrestrial planets in our solar system was strongly influenced by the radioactive decay heat of short-lived radionuclides (SLRs), particularly 26Al, likely delivered from nearby supernovae. However, current models struggle to reproduce the abundance of SLRs inferred from meteorite analysis without […] The post Cosmic-Ray Bath in a Past Supernova Gives B…
Supernova immersion model suggests Earth-like planets are more common in the universe
Rocky planets like our Earth may be far more common than previously thought, according to new research published in the journal Science Advances. It suggests that when our solar system formed, a nearby supernova (the massive explosion of a star near the end of its life) bathed it in cosmic rays containing the radioactive ingredients […] The post Supernova immersion model suggests Earth-like planets are more common in the universe appeared first …
