The video explores the concept of eyeball planets, which are unique celestial bodies with one hemisphere always facing their star, resulting in extreme temperature differences. These planets form due to tidal locking, a common gravitational phenomenon. Despite their unusual nature, they may be more common than Earth-like planets and could potentially support life under certain conditions, such as orbiting a red dwarf star and having a magnetic field. The video also discusses the potential adaptations of life forms on these planets and highlights ongoing research into their habitability.
