At what orbital radius would a planet in our solar system have to be to enjoy “Earth-like” temperatures and conditions when the Sun arrives at the tip of its Red Giant “branch” (about 5 billion years hence). Compare your answer to the present orbital radius of Pluto. Assume that the orbit of earth is circular around the sun.

The orbital region of Earth is known as the Goldilocks region in our solar system where the probability of life to exist is higher than any other regions which may be too hot or too cold. My question: Why did we make such a wild assumption that, for life to exist we need a neither hot nor cold region or there has to be oxygen and water? There might be alien life which require say Plutonium or Mercury to live....

In the inner solar system, (inside of Mars' orbit) a reasonable characteristic temperature for planetary atmospheres is 200K. suppose a certain molecule has two levels energies differ by amount corresponding to the maximum frequency at this temperature. a.) what is this maximum frequency and the corresponding energy of this transition? b) By what factor does the rate of transitions between the levels of our molecule differ from the rate of spontaneous transition from the upper to lower level?
