Although it is now widely accepted that terrestrial planets of our solar system have formed through collision of planetesimals and protoplanetary objects, the formation of Earth as a habitable planet and the origin of its water are still unknown. The discovery of now more than 200 extrasolar planets have made this matter even more complicated since, as shown by several researchers, many of these systems can be potentially habitable and harbor Earth-like objects. In this talk, I will review the status of the current theories of habitable planet formation, within the context of both our solar system and extrasolar planets, and will discuss the applicability of these theories in identifying probable targets for future space missions.
