Outlines of the Earth's History A Popular Study in Physiography The habitability of a house, for instance, depends on its possessing a cavity of a certain size; there is a critical size of brick-aggregate which enables it to serve as a dwelling. Life and Matter A Criticism of Professor Haeckel's 'Riddle of the Universe' But without regard to the question of habitability, the asteroids will be found extremely interesting. Other Worlds Their Nature, Possibilities and Habitability in the Light of the Latest Discoveries It is uncertain whether this would have any important effect upon the habitability of the planet, but it supplies the fourth possible case for the position of the axis.

The Moon-Voyage The first champion of the habitability of Mars was Sir William Herschel, although even before his time the idea had been suggested. Curiosities of the Sky This period, closely accordant with the earth's, is, as far as it goes, another argument for the habitability of Venus. Other Worlds Their Nature, Possibilities and Habitability in the Light of the Latest Discoveries That idea brought up once more the question of the habitability of the moon. From the Earth to the Moon; and, Round the Moon He believes that he can demonstrate the habitability of our own sun, and, reasoning from analogy, he is firmly convinced that all the suns of all the systems are "well supplied with inhabitants." A History of Science — Volume 3 That idea again brought up the question of the habitability of the moon. The Moon-Voyage Since it is our intention to discuss the habitability of only one of the seven to which the question applies, the rest may be dismissed in a few words. Curiosities of the Sky It was the discovery that the moon has no perceptible atmosphere that first seriously undermined the theory of its habitability. Other Worlds Their Nature, Possibilities and Habitability in the Light of the Latest Discoveries They knew what systems should be rejected, what retained with regard to the formation of that orb, its origin, its habitability. From the Earth to the Moon; and, Round the Moon Exactly," replied Bearwarden, "for it will require vast periods; and, according to my belief, at least half the earth's time of habitability had passed before man appeared.
