Yeah, they said it's size and atmosphere are simalar to Earth's. Which means it might be able to support life.
They also said it's 20 light years away. |

Yeah, has all that in the article. They're not sure if there's already water or life there, though.

there are frozen oceans on it and the surface temperature is around -428 degrees fahrenheit, so it most likely doesnt have life since pretty much nothing can survive in that temp... also, their sun is a red dwarf, meaning that it's going to die out soon and the discovery is pretty useless... it probably DID support life at one point, a few billion years ago when their sun was larger, but definitely doesnt now here's an article i found on it http://www.llnl.gov/pao/news/news_re...-06-01-08.html edit: im not sure if the links are talking about the same planet o_O |
