Researchers from Göttingen made an astonishing discovery: In space there is a “second earth” on which even human life could be possible.
Göttingen – Göttingen experts from the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (MPS) have explored 4000 planets over the past 14 years. One discovery in particular is fascinating: the researchers discovered a life-friendly planet with a sun star * in space. The supposed second earth called "Koi" orbits its home star "Kepler-160", which enables life-friendly temperatures on the "second earth".
In addition to the researchers from Göttingen, experts from NASA, who are planning an asteroid bombardment with Esa *, tracked the suspicion. The fact that there are other life-friendly planets in space actually does not seem to be excluded. According to the researcher René Heller, the most recently researched combination of sun and earth stands out from the new discoveries. But what distinguishes “Koi” and its home star from the other newly discovered planets? * 24hamburg.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
