wasnt there a thread and/or piccy on here showing comparison to the size of planets in our solar system. bit sketchy but i remember it being like the earth compared to another planet and that planet compared to something else and so on, with the perspectives getting larger and larger. anyone got a link to it...

The planet has to be right distance from the Star (sun) If we were a few light minutes either side of where we are, life wouldn't have got off the ground.
The planet has to have a molten core
The star has to be the right kind of star
Its quite possible the planet has to have another planet the size of Jupiter and saturn in its system to act as shield against asteroids and comets. Similarly it may have to have a moon for the same reason.
Thats just scratching the surface, there are millions of variables that all have to be exactly right for life to exist. Just saying "there are billions of planets therefore there must be life" doesn;t work.
