Pulsar and Magnetar (Page 2) Aura: The point was, there are other liquids aside from water that could very well contain nutrients for lifeforms. True water would evaporate or freeze. Azimuth_Predator: I think we should gather all our statements and figure out the best circumstances for this issue. We all have valid points. But there are some that i emphasized on from all 3 of us. Should we work with those ones or are there more to put on the table? Azimuth_Predator: Well Zed and Duncan have a point about water formation in 2 categories, when "close" to a Pulsar... But, the scenario could change with distance and no UFOs are required.. Azimuth_Predator: One bar thus far every1 has given answers which possibilities reach a respected level. What you are doing now is what people were doing years ago when some1 spoke of a black hole.. duncan124: It is true we need a fluid to live. Many fluids would also be in their gas or solid states often due to the high energy levels thought to be at pulsars. So an answer to Azis question is life has less chance of occurring near a system with high energy levels because of the great changes that take place in things there. And life has more chance were there are more stable conditions. One Bar: The centripetal acceleration must be very high on a pulsar. Solids must be tied to the surface to stop them flinging off into space. | Science Chat Room 2 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
