NASA's kepler mission has found earth sized, probably habitable planet orbiting towards star just like our sun.
Here, is the concept of the same.
Just like our Sun NASA scientists has found another planet named Kepler-186f.
According to scientists it's earth sized planet which orbits around a distant star.
It's range of star is where liquid is possible. So yeah there exists a water and probably there would be life.
NASA says,
While planets have previously been found in the habitable zone, they are all at least 40 percent larger in size than Earth and understanding their makeup is challenging. Kepler-186f is more reminiscent of Earth.
It's 500 light years away from earth.
"The discovery of Kepler-186f is a significant step toward finding worlds like our planet Earth," said Paul Hertz, NASA's Astrophysics Division director at the agency's headquarters in Washington. "Future NASA missions, like the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and the James Webb Space Telescope, will discover the nearest rocky exoplanets and determine their composition and atmospheric conditions, continuing humankind's quest to find truly Earth-like worlds."
Research says that planet is rocky type.
The four companion planets, Kepler-186b, Kepler-186c, Kepler-186d, and Kepler-186e, whiz around their sun every four, seven, 13, and 22 days, respectively, making them too hot for life as we know it. These four inner planets all measure less than 1.5 times the size of Earth.
So this was it, this article was based on NASA's official site.
i will keep an eye on this planet but 500 light years
