Proxima Centauri b is the closest known exoplanet to our solar system that is thought to be within the habitable zone of its star.
Kepler-442b completes one orbit every 112 days and gets about two-thirds as much light as Earth. The scientists give it a 97 percent chance of being in the habitable zone.
If you’re planning on packing up and changing addresses to Kepler-442b or Kepler-438b anytime soon, you can probably put away the moving boxes for now.
A Reddit post suggests exoplanet Kepler-442b, located over 1,200 light years away, could be more suitable for humans than the Earth itself.
If you’re planning on packing up and changing addresses to Kepler-442b or Kepler-438b anytime soon, you can probably put away the moving boxes for now. While the newly discovered exoplanets and ...
Kepler-442b, one-third larger than Earth and which receives two-thirds of the light that reaches our planet, has a 97% chance of being in a habitable zone.
Kepler-442b is about 33 percent larger than Earth, and completes an orbit every 112 days. It receives about two-thirds as much light as Earth, and has a 60 percent chance of being rocky.
Kepler-438b gets about 40% more light than Earth (giving it a 70% chance of being in its star’s habitable zone), and Kepler-442b receives roughly two-thirds as much light as Earth (giving it a ...
Kepler-442b is about one-third larger than Earth, and the likelihood of it being rocky is around 60 per cent. To be in the habitable zone, an exoplanet must receive about as much sunlight as Earth.
Kepler-438b is 475 light-years away and Kepler-442b is 1,100 light-years away, and both are located in the constellation Lyra.
Kepler-438b orbits a relatively cool star that's 475 light-years away and is 12 percent bigger than Earth. Kepler-442b is 33 percent bigger than Earth, and is 1,100 light-years from us.
