Discovering another 'super Earth' can appear to live only 21 light-years away
This "Super Earth" is 2.8 times more massive than the Earth, 21 light-years away. This can be a rocky planet and cool enough to maintain liquid water, a condition for life.
- Super Earth revolves around the red dwarf GJ625 at a distance just enough to sustain life
- The new discovery of life on planet GJ 1132b, "super-Earth" is 39 light-years away
The planet rotates along the inner edge of the region in accordance with the life of a M. dwarf star. The researchers hope to observe the features of the planet and other features of the planet. this. From there they can better assess its ability to support life.
Researchers at the Canary Islands Astrophysics Institute (IAC) discovered the planet when viewed with a 3.6m Galileo national telescope located at the Roque de Ios Muchachos observatory. They obtained 151 spectra, for a period of 3.5 years thanks to HARPS - N devices (highly accurate planetary tracing device in the Northern Hemisphere).
Super Earth revolves around the red dwarf GJ625 at a distance just enough to sustain life.
With a distance of 21 light years and a short period spectrum, scientists have verified the presence of this planet. It revolves around the red dwarf GJ625 and takes 14 days to spin a complete ring.
So far this is the super Earth with the lowest mass detected. Next, the team will try to observe this planet to find out the density, radius and characteristic of the atmosphere when it passes ahead of the host star. This will help them formally confirm whether the planet is capable of sustaining life.
