Saturday Morning Science:
Water sphere in microgravity onboard the International Space Station.

(March 22, 2003) --- Expedition Six NASA ISS Science Officer Don Pettit performs a series of microgravity experiments with water spheres and effervescent antacid tablets. In the first of four videos, Pettit turns a thin film into a 50-millimeter sphere.

[pivotlordlol]

you will NEVER get laid

[tonderus8]

[crossketch1219]

good question i ask the same thing but the problem is the planet would need to create an ozone layer for plant and animal life idk about paricite life though

[LordWhorfinX]

Nope...would not work. Need more than water for Life.

first of all you would need to find a planet with the right temp that will sustain water in liquid state. Also, lightning is a source of creating amino acids and living compounds when it comes to combining with water

[chagymdmt]

yes it does depend on the elements like ozbiljsncovjek said but it would have to be alot of water like enough water to at least fill up a pond and its literaly imposible to stransport that much water in a ship itl take too long and the ship would have to be huge in which itl be harder to take to another planet itls be much easier if we just start terraforming planets =p (btw this isnt my acc is my bros he just seemed signed in)

[PaedoandthePrince]

Cool idea, but Earth is short enough on water without wasting it on different planets

[ozbiljancovjek]

Depends on the elements that are present, temperature, moisture, and similar things.
