    According to, [3] the greatest change in UV irradiance occurs in a planet orbiting an F0 star with >1.5 M ☉︎, as opposed to an F8 or F9 star with ≤1.2 M ☉︎. The most dangerous phase in a star's life for potentially habitable planets orbiting it would be the earliest, between the star's formation and its 500 Mya -milestone, especially ...

    Disc of debris around an F-type star, HD 181327. [1] An F-type main-sequence star (F V) is a main-sequence, hydrogen-fusing star of spectral type F and luminosity class V. These stars have from 1.0 to 1.4 times the mass of the Sun and surface temperatures between 6,000 and 7,600 K. [2] Tables VII and VIII.

  8. Galactic habitable zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_habitable_zone

    In astrobiology and planetary astrophysics, the galactic habitable zone is the region of a galaxy in which life is most likely to develop. The concept of a galactic habitable zone analyzes various factors, such as metallicity (the presence of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium) and the rate and density of major catastrophes such as supernovae, and uses these to calculate which regions ...

    The stars with the most confirmed planets are the Sun (the Solar System's star) and Kepler-90, with 8 confirmed planets each, followed by TRAPPIST-1 with 7 planets. The 1,033 multiplanetary systems are listed below according to the star's distance from Earth. Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Solar System, has three planets (b, c and d).
