Scientists Find Earth's Twin Planet!
Scientists Find Earth's Twin Planet!
https://www.youtube.com/thornews That's right. Earth 2.0, Earth's Twin, or a Non-Earth Earth has been found in the habitable zone of a distant solar system. It is only 1.1 times bigger than Earth & it has Astronomers and Scientists speculating on the possibilities of Water, Life and other magical things that can only exist in the Habitable Goldilocks Zone. (Or so the theory goes)
The newfound planet, called Kepler-186f, was first spotted by NASA's Kepler space telescope and circles a dim red dwarf star about 490 light-years from Earth. While the host star is dimmer than Earth's sun and the planet is slightly bigger than Earth, the positioning of the alien world coupled with its size suggests that Kepler-186f could have water on its surface, scientists say.
"This is the first definitive Earth-sized planet found in the habitable zone around another star," Elisa Quintana, of the SETI Institute and NASA's Ames Research Center and the lead author of a new study detailing the findings, said in a statement.
We've just taken another big step to us finding and announcing to the public that science has found evidence of life on other planets.
This Exoplanet is very interesting.
Soon we'll be at Ceres & Pluto.
Who knows what we will find?
Interesting times, indeed.
God Bless Everyone,
