Astronomers Discover an Earth-Like Planet With a Dangerous Temperature Problem
A newly identified Earth-sized exoplanet with a year-long orbit may lie near its star’s habitable zone, but extreme cold could limit its chances of hosting liquid water. HD 137010 b is a newly identified planet that appears broadly similar to Earth, but with one important caveat. Despite its Earth-like traits, it may be even colder [...]
For several decades, astronomers have been researching data from ancient telescopes to identify distant worlds similar to Earth. The transit method, which detects a tiny drop in brightness when a planet passes its star, is one of the most reliable tools for identifying a potentially habitable exoplanet. It is by analyzing the Kepler telescope mission K2 surveys, interrupted in 2018, that an international team has detected HD 137010b, a planet of…
