Detailed explanation-1: -But Earth is the only known planet (or moon) to have consistent, stable bodies of liquid water on its surface. In our solar system, Earth orbits around the sun in an area called the habitable zone.

Detailed explanation-2: -Earth. Home, sweet home – the only planet with accessible liquid water at the surface at “room temperature” in lakes, oceans, rivers, but also in solid form as ice caps and glaciers. As a bonus, Earth also has underground liquid water and ice and water vapor in the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-3: -While Earth is only the fifth largest planet in the solar system, it is the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Just slightly larger than nearby Venus, Earth is the biggest of the four planets closest to the Sun, all of which are made of rock and metal.

Ranking from least to most, the list includes: Enceladus, Triton, Dione, Pluto, Earth, with Europa, Callisto, Titan and Ganymede have the most liquid water by volume. Jupiter’s moon Ganymede has 46%, and Europa has 16% liquid water by volume.

Detailed explanation-5: -Structure. The composition of Jupiter is similar to that of the Sun – mostly hydrogen and helium. Deep in the atmosphere, pressure and temperature increase, compressing the hydrogen gas into a liquid. This gives Jupiter the largest ocean in the solar system – an ocean made of hydrogen instead of water.
