The Milky Way could be packed with planets with potentially inhabitable surfaces. At least, that’s what a team of researchers in Denmark suggest, after creating a computer model allowing them to estimate the means and the materials from which the planets in our solar system were formed.

NASA’s Perseverance rover began its exploration of Mars on Thursday, Feb. 18, keeping the whole world on tenterhooks as it landed on the red planet. While this space mission is getting underway, scientists from the University of Copenhagen have published research allowing them to suppose that water could have been a building block for all the planets in the Milky Way.

Using a computer model, pro…
