Scientists have long assumed that white dwarfs, the remnants of dead stars, were incapable of supporting life due to their diminishing energy output. However, a study by researchers at the Florida Institute of Technology has challenged this notion. They found that white dwarfs could provide perfect conditions for life on nearby Earth-like planets for up to 7 billion years. These fading star cores emit enough energy to sustain key life processes like photosynthesis and UV-induced abiogenesis, crucial for life's emergence. This unexpected revelation positions white dwarfs as potential havens for alien life, with planets in close orbit having extended periods of habitability. This discovery not only opens new possibilities for astrobiology but also questions traditional habitable zone concepts, highlighting the uniqueness of white dwarfs in fostering life. The study suggests that planets around white dwarfs could be promising targets in the quest for extraterrestrial life, offering a prolonged timeframe for the emergence of technologically advanced civilizations.
