Planetary Environments for LifeOne of the most interesting phenomenon associated with planets is life. In this paper I consider how life on Earth, and in particular life in extreme environments on Earth, define the range of environmental conditions for life, From this we can speculate on how life that is similar to life on Earth might survive on other worlds. Finally the possibility that life in some other planetary environments may have to be fundamental different from life on Earth to exist is considered.
