The Earth is the only planet in the universe known to support life, but there are billions of other planets that could potentially host life. Astrobiologists are searching for conditions that are similar to those on Earth, such as liquid water on the surface, in the Goldilocks Zone, which is the region around a star where temperatures are just right for liquid water to exist. By studying extremophiles, organisms that can survive in extreme conditions, scientists can make educated guesses about what life might look like on other worlds. Goldilocks and the Water Bears is a story about the origins and evolution of life and the search for it in other parts of the universe.
