Over the past two centuries, life on our planet has been discovered in the strangest places - in the depths of the ocean, near the extreme temperatures of volcanoes, and even in places that are abundant in sulfur instead of oxygen. As telescopes and rockets began to direct our attention towards the Milky Way, many have reasoned that life must exist in some other distant places. The possibility of life on bodies in our solar system began to be considered, and then on planets in other, more distant systems. Which also had to be found first. Today, after four thousand planets have been discovered in space, about fifty of which are similar to Earth, the question of life outside the solar system is becoming even closer.
