2. Billions of Habitable Alien Planets Should Exist in Our Galaxy by Clara Moskowitz, SPACE.com Assistant Managing Editor Date: 28 March 2012

3. Extrapolating from these findings, the researchers estimate that tens of billions of these planets are to be found in the Milky Way, and about 100 should lie in the immediate neighborhood of the sun.

5. The Mediocrity Principle “The Earth is a mediocre (average) planet revolving around a very unremarkable star.”

7. Hebrews 11:3 English Standard Version Anglicised 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.

8. "Now that we know that there are many super-Earths around nearby red dwarfs [a classification of star], we need to identify more of them using both HARPS and future instruments," said team member Xavier Delfosse. "Some of these planets are expected to pass in front of their parent star as they orbit — this will open up the exciting possibility of studying the planet's atmosphere and searching for signs of life."

9. When a planet passes in front of its star … … the light coming from the star allows the components of the planet’s atmosphereto be analyzed.

14. The Visible Spectrum – the width of a tiny, tiny thread within the vast total spectrum

15. Higher frequency wavelengths have higher energies – which are lethalto life.

16. The Critical Protective Layers

17. Sources of Gamma radiation • Radioactive elements here on Earth • Deep outer space sources – blocked by Earth’s atmosphere, no effect on life

19. Marie Curie and her husband Pierre announced the discovery of radium on December 26, 1898. It was hailed as a ‘wonder drug.’

41. The Ozone Layer Levels of ozone at various altitudes and blocking of different bands of ultraviolet radiation. Essentially all UVC (100–280 nm) is blocked by dioxygen (from 100–200 nm) or else by ozone (200–280 nm) in the atmosphere. The shorter portion of the UV-C band and the more energetic UV above this band causes the formation of the ozone layer, when single oxygen atoms produced by UV photolysis of dioxygen (below 240 nm) react with more dioxygen.

42. The ozone layer …CONTINUED The ozone layer also blocks most, but not quite all, of the sunburn-producing UV-B (280–315 nm) band, which lies in the wavelengths longer than UV-C. The band of UV closest to visible light, UV-A (315–400 nm), is hardly affected by ozone, and most of it reaches the ground. UVA does not cause skin reddening, but there is evidence that it causes long-term skin damage.

43. Solar radiation is electromagnetic radiation in the 280 nm to 3000nm wavelength range. The solar spectrum includes a small share of ultraviolet radiation (280 nm to 380 nm) which is invisible to our eyes and comprises about 2% of the solar spectrum, the visible light which range from 380 nm to 780nm and accounts for around 49% of the spectrum and finally of infrared radiation with long wavelength (780 to 3000 nm), which makes up most of the remaining 49% of the solar spectrum

48. Ozone protects the DNA in all living things

49. UV-B radiation can be harmful to the skin and is the main cause of sunburn; excessive exposure can also cause genetic damage, resulting in problems such as skin cancer. The ozone layer (which absorbs from about 200 nm to 310 nm with a maximal absorption at about 250 nm) is very effective at screening out UV-B; for radiation with a wavelength of 290 nm, the intensity at the top of the atmosphere is 350 million times stronger than at the Earth's surface. Nevertheless, some UV-B, particularly at its longest wavelengths, reaches the surface.
