  2. What is Earth-like? What is Earth-like? • Energy Source • Photo-spheric Temperature • Mass • Orbit and Rotation • Microenvironments/Extremophiles • Ecology • What do you think is the hardest aspect of Earth for a planet to emulate? • Energy Source • Photo-spheric Temperature • Mass • Orbit and Rotation • Microenvironments/Extremophiles • Ecology • What do you think is the hardest aspect of Earth for a planet to emulate? • Energy Source • Photo-spheric Temperature • Mass • Orbit and Rotation • Microenvironments/Extremophiles • Ecology • What do you think is the hardest aspect of Earth for a planet to emulate?

  3. Kepler-62e Kepler-62e • Kepler-62 in Lyra constellation • 4th planet of 5 • 3-11 billion years old • 1200ly • Ice/water • 1.6x • 122 days • Habitable zone • Kepler-62 in Lyra constellation • 4th planet of 5 • 3-11 billion years old • 1200ly • Ice/water • 1.6x • 122 days • Habitable zone

  4. Kepler-62f Kepler-62f • Lyra • 1.4x • Ice/water • Habitable zone • If Kepler-62f has a mass of 1.4x Earth, would it be easier or harder to move than on Earth? • Lyra • 1.4x • Ice/water • Habitable zone • If Kepler-62f has a mass of 1.4x Earth, would it be easier or harder to move than on Earth?

  5. Kepler-186f Kepler-186f • 10% bigger • Habitable zone • Earth-like terrain • Potential atmosphere • 135 days • 500ly • 10% bigger • Habitable zone • Earth-like terrain • Potential atmosphere • 135 days • 500ly

  6. Gliese 581g Gliese 581g • 5th planet from star • Habitable zone • 20 ly • 2.4x mass • .15x Earth orbit • Controversial Existence
