A super-Earth with life potential
"Super-Earth" found just 20 light-years away is our best chance so far to find alien life
HD 20794 d completes its orbit just shy of two Earth years, placing it well within reach of conditions that might harbor life.
Oxford researcher discovers new super-Earth HD 20794 d just 19.7 light-years away
The discovery of a potentially habitable 'super-Earth' exoplanet, HD 20794 d, was published in the scientific journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. Located approximately 19.7 light-years away from Earth in the Eridanus constellation, the exoplanet is considered part of our 'nearby neighborhood' on a universal scale, facilitating its study.
Exoplanet HD 20794 d: A super-Earth with life potential
It is located in a star system less than 20 light-years away, making it one of the closest candidates for further research.
New super-earth discovery: A step closer to finding alien life?
Because this planet is relatively close to Earth and orbits a bright star, it is a perfect target for future telescopes. Scientists will use advanced technology, such as the upcoming Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), to study the planet’s atmosphere and look for signs of life.
Newly Discovered Earth-like Exoplanet May Hold Potential for Life
Astronomers who identified HD 20794 d say its proximity to its host star and orbital pattern suggest it could hold water.
