Do a Filipino possibly discover a planet with amounts of oxygen and life?

yes it is possible that phillipino can go search for it but I am sure he will never be able to find one cause in our solar system there is no planet like earth. Earth is at perfect position and its perfect for life to grow. And If u want to go out from solar space you will need super and fastest spaceship to go for search.

Oxygen is the gas on which human respiration is dependant. There is a relative abundance of this gas in our atmosphere. Plants (which arrived on Earth before animals) were responsible for "polluting" the primeval atmosphere with this highly reactive gas (incidentally the same gas which forms ozone and screens us from deadly high energy radiation from the sun).\n\nI'll quickly run through the rest of the planets: -\n\n1. Mercury.\nHelium atmosphere which is almost nonexistent. Surface  temperatures vary between 350C (day) and minus 170C (night).\nVerdict: - instant death.\n\n2. Venus.\nAtmosphere has large quantities of sulphur dioxide (which smells like rotten eggs or a really bad fart!) and a constant rain of sulphuric acid. Pressure 90 times greater than the Earth's. Temperature of about 500C. Suspected that this is the effect of runaway global warming (heat trapped by carbon dioxide).\nVerdict: - Instant nasty death. The closest physical approximation to Hell.\n\n3. Earth.\nMmmmm. Nice.\n\n4. Mars.\nAtmosphere of mainly carbon dioxide. Atmospheric density fluctuates, but is never enough for liquid water to form in appreciable amounts. Mean surface temperature about minus 27C.\nVerdict: - Temperature and gravity are within tolerances for human life, but needs an oxygen and water transplant. No go (for the present).\n\n5., 6., 7., and 8. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.\nThese are all termed "gas giants". They all have cores, but at depths within their atmospheres such that surface pressure is enormous. Temperatures of between minus 150C (Jupiter) and minus 220C (Neptune).\nVerdict: - All non-starters.\nAs a piece of trivia, Saturn is the only planet which is less dense than water, which means that if you could find a big enough basin of water, it would float!\n\nAnd finally (phew!) 9. Pluto.\nSmaller than the moon. No atmosphere. Surface temperature minus 230C.\nVerdict: - Waste of time and space. Not even worth the term "planet". There are bigger moons than this! Ours for a start!\n\nThe combination of a planet's density and size affect its gravitational attraction. If Earth were denser or larger, its gravitational attraction would increase (ie// you'd weigh more).\nMercury is about the size and density of the moon, so you could probably jump about 10-20 feet in the air quite easily. Mars is less dense but larger than Mercury, and has comparable gravity. Venus is about the same as Earth. Jupiter isn't dense, but could hold about 1,000 Earths, so its gravity is too high for us. The other gas giants, for all their size, are appreciably less dense than Earth, and have gravities not much greater than Earth. And Pluto's so small and insignificant that I reckon if you jumped you could possibly end up in orbit around it.\n\nEarth is the ONLY place in the entire Universe that we know of which has conditions which can sustain life of any sort. If we play a part in altering the atmosphere on this planet the Earth will still exist.It just might not be suitable for life.\n\nFurther answer to your additional response bit: -\n\nIf an astronaut removed his helmet on any planet except Earth he would die almost instantly.

1.) The chances are about 100%, plus-minus 0%. Primitive forms of life (i.e. cells) have been discovered on Mars and on some asteroids, the question is, whether there is intelligent extra-terrestrial life. And I find it hard to believe that there wouldn't be, given the infinite size of the universe and the laws of probability. \n\n2.) No, I don't believe in mermaids. Leprechauns, now that's another story...

Many things are in space...the are compounts of gases, metals, rock and ice...Elements you can find on earth too

Wow! another brain-tickling question from Neuro-Prof! What imagination! Yeah, that would be pretty interesting to see. I think a planet with such conditions will be a home for people who'd be considered super-heros by us on earth. Silicon would make their skin rough and abrasive. That would be just awesome!\n\nNow, coming to your question, I think the conditions that would favour such an atmosphere should be-\n1- Extremely high pressure. Pyrolysis is one of the methods to break Si-H bonds.\n\n2- Extremely high temperature.\n\n3- Reducing Atmosphere / Abundance of Dihydrogen. As compared to our earth's oxidising atmosphere, a reducing atmosphere would contribute a lot more in breaking the Si-O bonds.\n\nGreat question, I must say.

All sorts, it is almost invetable that the universe MUST be teeming with life.\nBillions of planets, millions with life.  Possibly billions with life

No living organism can live without oxygen. They also need a particular temperature to sustain lives. But, as far as we know, Neptune is a gas giant without oxygen. The temperature is below -200 C. Thus, it's obvious that there is no life in Neptune.

The Philippines was discovered in 1521 by Ferdinand Magellan

More than a decade after the first planets beyond our solar system were found, astronomers have discovered about 200 of these "extrasolar planets," as they're called. Using a common-sense definition of potentially habitable planets, coupled with extensive computer simulations, scientists have calculated how many potentially habitable planets might be detected around other stars by the SIM PlanetQuest mission. ("SIM" stands for Space Interferometry Mission.) \n\nThe mission, scheduled for a launch in the next decade, will target planets with specific traits in common with Earth: a similar mass and an orbit in the "habitable zone," not too close and not too far from its parent star. With this mass and location, it's believed a planet could have liquid water on its surface and an atmosphere -- conditions considered necessary for life to gain a foothold. \n\nThe science team has shown that, in a survey of the best 120 candidate stars for hosting such planets, SIM PlanetQuest would have the sensitivity to find: \n\n-- Planets smaller than Earth around six stars \n\n-- Planets smaller than twice Earth's mass around 24 stars

life needs not only oxygen but othere conditions as well. Life needs essentailly he fore of gravity for the proceses of life to be active .It is graiy tha keeps the sir balanket over the surfaxce oif he earth . But for that , the air would vanish into thin air ! - would anish into space . Water would not flow and our food would not go doen  our throat and would not even be able to defecate . aain the climate is also imporant . We hae go to be at a distncefrom the dun hat would be expose us to a ligh and heat that is cinsucive to the development of live and tolerable to life .ALL  he planets around the sun are not locaed at a sistance very conducive to the deelopmemt of life like us .and all of hem dfo not hav a gaviy  tha is suitable for the fuctioning of our system . We are not independent of our great mother earth. We will not survive in any planet which dose not hae an amospher  and gavity like the earth. Oxygen alone won't  help us live .Since the building blocks of all elemens ar the same - electron and proton - we would be able create oxyen in any planet by a suiable process that man would be able to create by manipulaing the numbver of electrons in the aoms of any subasance aailable in any pkanet . We do not hae to transfer oxygen anywhere . we can create oxygen from   whatever is available anywhere.

Very little chance, considering most life will not exist outside our solar system from the huge heat of the planets.\n\nOHANDPOSTINGINCAPSLOCKSWITHNOSPACESMAKESYOUREALLYMATUREIMSUREYOUHAVEAHOTGFANDARETOSEXYFOREVERYONEHERE!!!

Any life form as we know it could never live on Uranus. Of course, I think it's a bit arrogant and short-sighted to think that we know any and all forms that life can take. After all, life exists at the bottom of oceans where it was once thought living organisms could never survive. We have such a small perspective so far that there could be many forms of life that we can't currently imagine. Only time will tell.

I agree with you. There has got to be other planets out there with life on them. And some with intelligent life. It is very self centered for humans to say Earth is the only planet in the whole universe to have life. And yes, for the religious people, God does not have to mention that there other planets with life for it to be true.

a) cyanobacteria \n\nOur atmosphere would have virtually no free oxygen nor any eukaryotes if not for them....

It depends on what you mean by earth-like. There have been a few planets that might not be gas giants and are reasonably close to their central stars so they will not be too cold discovered in extrasolar star systems. \n\nI have attached a link to a story about the most recently discovered "earth-like" planet. However, it has a "year" that is only 10 days long, and the surface is over 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, so it is not that much like earth.

Well first thing is this planet has not officially been named yet, Xena, Persephone, and Lila are the recent names. The facts about it so far is it has an oliptical orbit, extremely far and its thought to have pluto-like surface. Life? Its highly doubtfull anything could survive. Its orbit takes 560 years.\nI recommend the following weblink: http://www.gps.caltech.edu/~mbrown/planetlila/
