Mr Gillon said: "If you _________ on the surface of one of these planets, you would _________ a wonderful view of the other planets. You wouldn't ___________ them like we see Venus or Mars, like dots of light. You would see them really as we see the Moon. You would see the structures on these worlds." Astronomer Dr Jessie Christiansen said that life ______ everywhere, "such as bacteria that survives in 130-degree caves, or things at the bottom of the ocean where there's no light".
