Life on Planets

The formation of life is a complex and long process. In summary, life forms where there is water or similar liquid that is solvent and transporter of molecules. The temperature should be adequate for chemical reactions to happen and stable enough for sustained chemical cycles. This last one is my addition, the medium where the organic materials converge and form a living cell should be relatively still like the puddles. Once an organism is formed and it starts reproducing itself, it can spread to harsh environments and stay alive there as well.

When we look at the planets in our solar system, there is no planet that satisfies all these criteria other than the Earth. The planets and their moons beyond Earth are cold and wouldn't allow complex organisms to form. There may be primitive organisms that adapted to their extreme surroundings. Jupiter and Saturn moons that have geysers have the highest potential for life. Planets closer to the sun are too hot for life forms to form. The clouds of Venus may contain traces of organic material. However, the turbulent atmosphere of the planet is not still enough for such molecules to combine and form life.

I am not an expert on the topic. I derived my conclusions, based on the scientific materials I read and my observations. There would definitely be life on exoplanets similar to Earth. However, due to laws of physics, these life forms cannot interact with each other because of the immense distance between them.
