<br/><br/> "If it weren't for such fortuitous galactic placement, what scientists have referred to as the galactic habitable zone (GHZ), Earth may well have been scorched by gamma-ray jets, blown away by stellar winds, blasted apart by supernovae explosions, or bombarded by countless comets and asteroids long ago." (ASTRONOMY) This article describes Earth's location in the galaxy and explains why this zone may be the most likely place to find complex life.
