Tidally Locked Worlds: Life in the Twilight Zone

from Exoplanet Radio · host Tony Darnell

We are hoping the same is true on worlds around other stars, and recent research has begun looking into the question of whether life on other worlds could exist in the most inhospitable environs: the terminator zone of tidally locked planets.
