Theoretically, life can take many different forms, such as silicon-based life, sulphur-based life, carbon-based life, amino-life, hydrogen-based life, etc. However, so far we only know that life exists on earth, and all known life, including us humans, is carbon-based.

Why Is It That Only Uranium And Plutonium Can Be Used For Nuclear Fuel? But Not Other Elements?
The more "nucleons" an atomic nucleus contains, the greater its mass, but scientists have found that the average mass of the "nucleons" of different elements is different

In the macroscopic world, the solar system is a system of celestial bodies centred on the sun, in which the vast majority of mass is concentrated and the major planets orbit the sun, while in the microscopic world, an atom is a microscopic system centred on the nucleus of an atom, in which the vast majority of mass is concentrated and electrons orbit the nucleus.

Life May Not Have Originated On Earth, And There Is Growing Evidence That Life Should Have Originated In Outer Space
In the past days, scientists have been working on the study of meteorites, and as the research continues, there is more and more evidence that life should originate from outer space
