For centuries, humans have wondered if life exists on other planets. With
advancements in technology, this question is closer to being answered than ever
before. Scientists have discovered thousands of planets outside our solar system,
some of which have conditions that could support life. These planets are called
"exoplanets," and they orbit stars just like Earth orbits the Sun.

water exists on another planet, life could exist there too. In recent years,
telescopes have found signs of water on a few distant planets, raising hopes
that we are not alone in the universe.
Another exciting idea is the possibility of life on moons in our own solar system.
For example, Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, has a thick layer of ice on its
surface. Underneath that ice, there may be oceans of liquid water, which could
provide the perfect environment for life to exist.
Even though we have not found life yet, the search continues. Missions are
being planned to explore these distant worlds in more detail. In the future, we
may discover that life exists in places we never imagined.
