NASA announces new ‘super-Earth’ exoplanet that orbits in habitable zone
Is there a possibility that the recently identified “super-Earth” possesses conditions conducive to sustaining life?
This newly found exoplanet is located at a relatively short distance, merely 137 light-years away, and orbits within a “habitable zone,” as per NASA’s observations.
Astronomers indicate that the planet, named TOI-715 b, is approximately one and a half times the diameter of Earth and revolves around a small, reddish star.
The same planetary system might also host a second, Earth-sized planet. If confirmed, this would potentially make it the smallest habitable-zone planet identified by TESS (the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) to date, as per NASA’s statement on January 31.
Considering the super-Earth’s distance from its parent star, it falls within a conservative “habitable zone,” presenting conditions suitable for the formation of liquid water on its surface—a crucial element for supporting life, according to NASA, ABC News reported.
