Sentences with phrase «water in a stable orbit»

An Earth - type planet could have liquid water in a stable orbit centered around 0.036 AU from Star B — well within the orbital distance of Mercury in the Solar System.
An Earth - type planet could have liquid water in a stable orbit centered around 1.18 AU from Star A — between the orbital distances of Earth and Mars in the Solar System.
An Earth - type planet could have liquid water in a stable orbit centered around 3.5 AU (within a predicted habitable zone ranging between 2.3 and 4.8 AUs) from Star A — between the orbital distances of the Main Asteroid Belt and Jupiter in the Solar System (NASA Stars and Exoplanet Database).

Not exact matches

If so, then conditions would be more favorable for the existence of stable orbit for an Earth - like planet (with liquid water) centered around 1.5 AU from around Iota Persei — around the orbital distance of Mars in the Solar System.
For an Earth - type planet around HD 189733 A to have liquid water at its surface, it would need a stable orbit centered around 0.5 AU — between the orbital distances of Mercury and Venus in the Solar System (with an orbital period around 150 days assuming a stellar mass around 82 percent of Sol's.
If so, then conditions would be more favorable for the existence of stable orbit for an Earth - like planet (with liquid water) centered around 1.15 AU from around 15 Sge — between the orbital distances of Earth and Mars in the Solar System.
Assuming that the spectroscopic companion B does not preclude a stable inner planetary orbit, the distance from Star A where an Earth - type planet would be «comfortable» with liquid water is centered around only 0.457 AU — between the orbital distances of Mercury and Venus in the Solar System.
If so, then conditions would be more favorable for the existence of stable orbit for an Earth - like planet (with liquid water) centered around 1.12 AU from around 37 Gem — between the orbital distances of Earth and Mars in the Solar System.
However, if the existence of a relatively close, second companion (see Star Bc below) around Bab — with an orbital period of 2.2 to 2.9 years or less — is confirmed, then a planetary orbit in Star Ba's water zone may not be stable over the long run.
