Venus with its hellish conditions or Europa with it's ice could have us reconsidering where life could form.

Scientists are working to understand their underlying processes, such as which particle surface properties encourage or discourage ice formation, called nucleation, so they can accurately simulate how, where, and when clouds are formed.

Theoretical modelling indicate that a hot steam planet could form if it formed in a colder orbit farther from GJ 1214, where lower temperatures would have created an ice - rock composition similar to Jupiter's moon Ganymede, and the planet should have formed too late to accrete a large hydrogen - helium gas envelope.

As this water moves through rocks, it dissolves salt compounds and pushes through fractures in the overlying ice to form reservoirs closer the moon's surface, where it is expelled into space when the outermost layer of the crust cracks open and the resulting depressurization of these reservoirs causes water vapor and ice particles to shoot out in the observed plumes.
