## Resource

New astronomical simulations suggest that Earth-like planets may be far more common than previously thought. By allowing planets to form from randomized starting conditions, researchers found that worlds resembling Earth, Venus, and Mars can naturally emerge around other stars. The findings offer new clues about how habitable planets form—and how common life-friendly environments might be across the universe.
