Astronomers have discovered an Earth-like planet that might harbor life. This publication reports Heritage Daily.
The discovered celestial body is located 100 light years from us. It revolves around a small star in the constellation Dorado, making a complete revolution in 28 days. It can have liquid water on its surface. According to scientists, the planet is only 5% smaller than Earth.
The discovery of TOI 700 e was made by NASA employees using the TESS space telescope. “If the star were a little closer or the planet a little bigger, we might have detected TOI 700 e in the first year of the TESS data. But the signal was so weak that it took us an additional year of transit observations to identify it, ”commented a graduate student at the Space Flight Center. NASA Goddard at Greenbelt Ben Hord.
