- When astronomers first went about finding planets outside our solar system, the method they used could only detect planets the size of Jupiter. A good start, although not ideal if you're curious about life outside of Earth.
"But if you're looking for life as we know it, you want to find familiar planets," StarTalk Radio host Neil deGrasse Tyson tells us. "Planets maybe the size of Earth. Planets that are the right distance from their host star."
So, in order to satiate our curiousity for potential life outside Earth, NASA launched Kepler - a space observatory with the primary purpose of identifying Earth-like planets.
With well over 2,000 "planet candidates," Kepler is our "best bet for finding life as we know it," says Tyson.
Watch our video interview with Neil deGrasse Tyson to find out more about Earth-like planets and to hear his thoughts on life outside of Earth.

Aliens would come to our planet and meet the flat earthers and they would conclude that there is no intelligent life.

Why does there need to ba water for life?
***** But why does it HAVE TO BE water? Why should the evolution elsewhere be different?
it doesn't have to be. Liquid methane has been theorized to support a different form of life (Titan around saturn) but, water is extremely common in the universe, its very simple, and it works very well as a universal solvent which a solvent is needed for life as we can comprehend it

Neil was inspiring early on. Show me more than some worm like picture or possible water. I want to see something like a lizard with 24 toes or something. I am being facetious.
