Earth-like extrasolar planet, computer artwork. This planet has oceans, and an atmosphere that can support clouds. It also has a system of rings, and a moon (upper left). It is in orbit around a red dwarf star (lower left). Earth-like planets capable of supporting life are found only in a star's habitable zone, a region around a star where the surface temperature of a planet is suitable for liquid water.
