Kepler-452b (sometimes quoted to be an Earth 2.0 or Earth's Cousin [4] [5] based on its characteristics; also known by its Kepler Object of Interest designation KOI-7016.01) is a super-Earth exoplanet orbiting within the inner edge of the habitable zone of the sun-like star Kepler-452 and is the only planet in the system discovered by the Kepler space telescope.
586 K (313 °C, 595 °F) LHS 475 b is a terrestrial planet orbiting the star LHS 475 which is about 40.7 light years away, in the constellation of Octans. [2][3] It was the first extrasolar planet to be confirmed by the James Webb Space Telescope. [4] It completes an orbit every 2 days and is 99% the diameter of Earth.
The planet was found using data from the NASA Kepler Space Telescope, K2, and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite.K2-415b was discovered in February 2023. [2]K2-415b is approximately 1.015 times the radius of Earth and is less than 7.5 times the mass of Earth.
Two teams of scientists have discovered a theoretically habitable planet called Gliese 12b that’s smaller than Earth but bigger than Venus, just 40 light-years away.
Scientists have found a new Earth -like planet that could support alien life – just 40 light-years away. The planet is a remarkable discovery in the search for habitable worlds: it is slightly ...
Kepler-442b[1][4][5] (also known by its Kepler object of interest designation KOI-4742.01) is a confirmed near-Earth-sized exoplanet, likely rocky, orbiting within the habitable zone of the K-type main-sequence star [6] Kepler-442, about 1,206 light-years (370 pc) from Earth in the constellation of Lyra. [4][5] The planet orbits its host star ...
The planet is about the size of Venus, so slightly smaller than Earth, and may be temperate enough to support life, the researchers said. Dubbed Gliese 12 b, the planet takes 12.8 days to orbit a ...
Kepler-438b (also known by its Kepler Object of Interest designation KOI-3284.01) is a confirmed near-Earth-sized exoplanet. It is likely rocky. [5] It orbits on the inner edge of the habitable zone of a red dwarf, Kepler-438, about 460.2 light-years from Earth in the constellation Lyra. [1][2] It receives 1.4 times our solar flux. [6] The ...
