"Based on the Astrobiology journal, the possibility of sustaining life in the ring could occur in a twilight zone that lasts indefinitely. This potential arises from water released by melting glaciers, creating a fertile environment that supports plant growth."

According to astronomer Sean Raymond, there is a planet made of ice that is located far from the heat of its star. Although its night side is still covered by a layer of ice, the side exposed to its star's light is not a barren and dry area like Earth. On the contrary, that area consists of vast and liquid oceans, similar to the abundant oceans on Earth, which could potentially be habitable.
