A star's '''habitable zone''' is the region in which a [[terrestrial planet]] of the right size could have a surface temperature that might allow for liquid water and potentially life. <ref>Bennet, Jeffrey, et al.

For example, if a star much similar our [[Sun]] has a lifetime of one million years and temperature of 6094K. Its habitable zone lies within 1.02AU and 1.49AU. <ref>"Exploring the Habitable Zone and Central Star", CADRE design Pty. Ltd.</ref>
