Has NASA discovered another Earth?
Categories: General | Pubby Cash Received: 0 | Click to AwardAstronomers have discovered a new planet and it is similar to Earth. This unique planet is called Kepler-1649c and is named after the Kepler Space Telescope. Kepler-1649c is 300 light-years away from Earth and a light-year is how far light moves in one year. Outside of our solar system, scientists have found more than 2,000 exoplanets and one thing makes finding this new planet better than others which is that Kepler-1649c is a lot like Earth. Kepler-1649c is only slightly larger than Earth and like our sun, a star gives the new planet light, it receives almost as much light as Earth. Also, scientists think it is about just as warm, too. Andrew Vanderburg is a scientist and works at a university. He helped a lot by writing studying about Kepler-1649c. Mr. Vanderburg said finding this many exoplanets is great and one could turn out to be like Earth. Well, that's it for this article and I hope you learned something new.
