Life on Other Planets?

Is there extraterrestrial life on other planets? Scientists and Astronomers are currently testing for life on other planets far away. They have recently found evidence of carbon dioxide on a planet 63 light-years away. No life has been found on this planet, not only that it has not been found but it is impossible for life to grow there. The levels of CO2 is too great to sustain any life. The estimated temperature on this planet is roughly about 1700 degrees Fahrenheit. They will continue to look for more life on other planets.

1. Well written
2. Had very interesting facts
3. Very interesting

1. Could of gone a little more in depth
2. Talk more about other planets that are inhabitable

1. I learned that the CO2 levels on far planets is to great to make planet a habitable place.

1. Interesting artical
2. Well written
3. Had a good amount of facts

1. Could have talked about more plants
2. Could have talked about how they are examing the plants.

1. Some thing that help me understand this artical were the reasons why life could survive on that plant 63 light years away.

This summary was very interesting, informative, and well written.
Two things that could be improved on are the opinions of others and if it talked about more than one planet.
I learned that the planet HD 189733b is too large and too hot (1,700 degrees Fahrenheit) for any form of life to live there.

1) Short
2) Interesting topic
3) Good facts

1) Talk more about the planets
2) Only focused on 1 planet

1) Didn't know there would be CO2 found on other planets, rather than earth.

3. interesting topic
2. great information
1. nice summarization

2. A bit short
1. Could talk about some other planets

1. I actually didnt know that scientists could do research on planets that far away

3. this was a cool topic to choose
2. short and to the point
1. good amount of information

2. Could have written more on how they can see the CO2 on these planets
1. Could explain why life isnt on this planet

1. I learned that scientists could study these planets even though they are so far away.

3 aspects well presented:
* easy to understand
* direct to the point
* topic that everyone wants to know the answer

2 suggestions:
* you could make a comparison on CO2 level in the planet and the CO2 level in out planet.
* could explain why carbon dioxide is an important step to find life in other planets.

1 thing that I learned:
* There is no knowledge about life in other planets yet

3. Like the article
It had good information
Nice and short

2. Talk more about each of the planets
Talk a little more about the life on the other planets

3. I didn't know there is possible life on other planets
