Where art thouA
More aged than our planet AquaB
Having shed Earth like quirks and idiosyncrascies over billions of yearsC
To avoid jolting us with quakes or roasting us with lavaB
Slightly warmer larger and heavier than the EarthD
To retain the atmosphere at levels of utilityE
But not too heavy to make moving around too strenuousF
With a natural satellite like moon only a bit larger to make theB
Seasons stable orbit safe and check perpetual summersG
Breathable air with higher oxygen levelsH
Replete with humidity and cloudsI
And free from obnoxious gasesJ
A stronger magnet field gravity as a shield against solar stormsK
which wipes out the life that may take eons to sprout and evolveL
-
The eternal search for habitable planet is exhausting for the mankindM
Will we find it in our lifetimeN
Or do we have to wait agonisingly for decadesO
To find one to make it habitable and migrate to it in realityE
Until then we can t afford to turn the Earth beneath our feet into a colossal graveP
As Mars and Moon are ruled out as right candidatesQ
And before any mindless guy nuke us en masseR
Or some wayward asteroid s hit us hard and deep to turn us into ashes in a blinkS
Or some mysterious and stubborn disease devours us completelyE
-
If no habitable planet is found in our solar systemT
Our Astroscientists should even gaze at nearby exoplanetsR
The challenge is that even if we fine oneU
It may take s of years to reach them even if we travel speed of lightV
which we are Yet to attainW
As one can t journey that long in one s lifetime breeding en voyage got to be exploredX
Hence out of the box smart innovations are must to surmount these tricky thingsR
As Humans and aliens if at all they exist are on still a long way to find each otherY
-
celestial bodies outside our solar systemT

Poet's note: Considering the scientists relentless search for aliens and habitable planets (within or outside our solar system) and listing out the basic characteristics by them, thought that a versified form for aspirations would be apt and penned these lines. Hope these lines generate further interest in the intellectuals and laymen alike and expedites the search and enhance the resources for finding an alternative to our precarious planet, sooner than later.
