What a planet needs to sustain life...

 

"Venus is too hot, Mars is too cold, and Earth is just right," says planetary scientist Dave Brain.

Interesting lecture but... inconclusive.  And, astronomy simply can't provide means to verify if any explanet has actually the conditons to support life and less, if it really has any form of life.
