Even if the exoplanet is in the habitable belt of its star, there are many planets in the Universe that are simply horrendous by earthly standards. These are planets as our Venus, which always faces the star on one side. It was warm on the bright side, but bitterly cold on the dark side. Is it possible to live and develop on such planets in the zone of the terminator or light division?
Researchers from the University of California at Irvine (UCI) presented their findings in the influential astronomical journal The Astrophysical Journal, describing climatic conditions in the terminator zone on a planet that is constantly facing its star on one side. In this way, the Earth's model began to make one revolution around its axis during an orbital period around the star.
The terminator zone should not be a place where there is no excess of water on the planet, according to calculations. Oceans and seas are unnecessary for this reason, because then there is strong evaporation and the greenhouse effect, which increases the already high air temperature. However, life in such places would be more enjoyable for terrestrial biology.
New observations and exoplanets that had previously been overlooked may be screened out for a thorough examination, where planets that were previously thought to be unproven for the search for life might collapse in the terminator zone, or life might be found in the habitable zone of its star. It is not in our rights to ignore such a possibility.
