Minimum distance a planet can remain habitable from a sun-like star?
+0
−0
This one source is stating a desert planet the size of Earth could maintain habitability at 0.38 AU from a sun-like star, but I highly doubt this is possible. What are some factors that could make this possible?
The source for my information is http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.3714
Also for a solar-like star can just use our sun as the standard for calculating luminosity and temperature.
