New Planet Discovered!!!

Now, Planet Earth has discovered a twin planet!

It even has a star like sun! We are not yet sure if the Planet has habitation of Life and is in a area called the GOLDILOCKS ZONE how weird is that?? More than 400 old or dead planets have been discovered, but many of these are Gas Planets, just like Jupiter, that would never be able to have life as we know it.

At the moment the planet has a coded name, but hopefully it will have a name soon from astronomers, but at the moment it is called 581g


"Our findings offer a very compelling case for a potentially habitable planet," said Steven Vogt, an astronomer at the University of California, Santa Cruz. "The fact that we were able to detect this planet so quickly and so nearby tells us that planets like this must be really common."

This means that there probably is life, and there must be lots of other planets like this, and, you never know, we might meet aliens one day!

THere are lots of planets in the goldilocks zone but for there to be aliens there needs to be water and new theory has come about that life was created on asteroids because on earth an experiment was carried out to show that nucleobases part of DNA might be able to made on asteroids. Also where is this planet exactly and have you got a phtograph

The planet is also called gliesse and it sun is much smaller than ours and yet gliesse is seven times bigger. You could add a photograph. Also if global warming hits us then we might have to go to this planet but it would take 11000 years and therefore we might not survive. I think you should add more detail next time
