For the purposes of this hypothetical, let's hand-wave the why and focus on different solar radii and what they do for habitability through the system. …

is the greatest energy output of the secondary star (in terms of energy received by the planet) that would permit the habitability zone? … The Y-axis is the energy output of the secondary The Z-axis is habitability (0-100% liklihood of a habitability zone) I can easily assume that as X approaches infinity habitability approaches 100%. …

Following this question, I had additional question of habitability. …

The premise is that the planet is a young world, around 2.7 billion years old, orbiting a K star within the shorter distance from the center of the habitable zone. …

I wanted to know what you think about it and if you think it would make sense to have the moon habitable. I'll start with the star. … Will my moon be habitable? …

For any of the planets orbiting the yellow-dwarf binary, how different would "double habitability" be from the singular habitability that our Earth is currently under? … In other words, how would the red giant binary's habitable zone affect the yellow-dwarf binary's habitable zone? …

I'm curious about a couple of scenarios involving a habitable or partially-habitable Antarctica. … If the coast was habitable, I imagine the centre would still be a frozen wasteland, but how far would that extend? If the centre was habitable, how hot would the coasts get? …

If it would still get excessive radiation, what could I tweak to make the flare star flare randomly, but less intense that it would be habitable? …

Let's say that there is a star which has similar characteristics to the sun, and so the habitable zone is similar to that of Earth. … Does it create an overlapping habitable zone that means close in moons get a double dose from both the sun and the dwarf? More generally, what are the major issues for habitability in this system? …

This could mean the universe's biggest habitable zone, right? … In regards to the black hole's mass, its accretion disk's luminosity and the amount of X-rays being emitted, how far and how wide would the habitable zone be? …

, its Inner Habitable Zone is 0.845 AU, and Outer Habitable Zone is 1.49 AU. It's Stellar Flux on the inside of the HZ is 1.107, and on the outside is 0.356. …

For my solar system, I did all the calculations for its "habitable" zone, and I found out that I can (barely) fit two habitable planets within it. … I think it would radiate slowly through the crystal, but would the ambient heat be enough to theoretically extend the habitable zone? …

What kind of heat could this planet receive to make it habitable? Would radiation from the sun spill over the sides? … Could the (metallic) ringworld itself, absorbing energy from the sun, radiate an appreciable amount of energy from its dark side into space and create a habitable zone that this planet would be within? …

How do you go about boosting an already-habitable planet's habitability? …

Given a planet in the habitable zone and able to produce life what would be the effect of a short year? … For example NASA recently found 7 exoplanets with Trappist-1 d being in the habitable zone but having an orbital period of 18.2 days. …
