Kepler 22-B: Our Future Home | Earth 2.0 with Life

Kepler-22 B our closest Neigbour.

Amongst the many potentially habitable exoplanets, Kepler-22 b is probably the most promising. Because of this, the planet is extremely celebrated, but the reason for this is two-fold.

Astronomers have confirmed the discovery of an Earth-like planet which they say could be a potential future home for mankind outside the solar system.

The planet, Kepler 22-b, lies about 600 light-years away and is 2.4 times the size of Earth, and has a temperature of about 22 degree Celsius. It is the closest confirmed planet yet to one like ours -- an "Earth 2.0", says a team at NASA.

The new planet, confirmed by astronomers using the US space agency's Kepler telescope, contains both land and water and has the right atmosphere to potentially support life.
