NASA discovered a planet that looks like Earth, two suns and many oceans were found
Scientists do some exploration of the universe every year and every time it is proved that we earthlings may not be alone in this world. A question related to this always remains in our mind that is there any other world like us in the universe?
Planet 70 times bigger than Earth covered with water
In this episode, a team of scientists has discovered a planet about 100 years light distance from Earth, which is completely covered with water. According to NASA scientists, the name of this planet is TOI-1452 b. It is present in the Goldilocks Zone. This is the area of the Universe where there is neither very high temperature nor very cold. In such a situation, scientists believe that water can exist on this planet.
Scientists made a big disclosure about this discovery and said that this planet can be about 70 times bigger than Earth. NASA has discovered this planet with the help of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
Best planet ever to look like Earth
According to NASA, the discovery of this planet is very interesting. Hope there is water on it. Because there are also signs of having many oceans on this planet. At the same time, it is also being speculated that this planet can also be a rocky planet with an atmosphere of hydrogen and helium.
📣Discovery Alert!📣
100 light-years away, a planet bigger than Earth orbits two stars. Its mass, or weight, might be consistent with a rocky planet with a deep ocean. It will take more study, but scientists are intrigued and say it's worth a closer look! https://t.co/1blfLg9S5T pic.twitter.com/qtb1xj160R— NASA Exoplanets (@NASAExoplanets) August 24, 2022
Researchers from the University of Montreal have discovered this planet. According to the lead author of this research, Charles Cadieux, this planet (TOI-1452 b) is the best of the discovered ocean planets to date. They estimate that 30 percent of the planet’s mass may be water. To find out which James Webb Space Telescope will have to be used.
According to media reports, this planet has two suns. This planet orbits its red dwarf star once in 11 days. Apart from this, it also orbits a binary star, in which two stars orbit each other.
