This "Earth-Like" Planet Discovery Changes Our Understanding of the Universe

The scientific community is excited about the recent discovery of a new planet for two reasons: it is nearby and within the habitable zone. The newly discovered planet, which is an Earth-like planet orbiting Proxima Centauri within the habitable zone, is causing astronomers to become more excited. Although many people know about the nine planets in our solar system, there is another realm of planets that scientists are just uncovering, known as exoplanets. Exoplanets are planets that orbit a star other than our own, and they raise tantalizing possibilities of deep space exploration. The emergence of exoplanets has intensified interest in the search for extraterrestrial life because scientists now know where to scan for possible life-hosting planets. Proxima B, the closest exoplanet to us, was confirmed in 2016 as an Earth-sized rocky exoplanet, and it orbits its parent star at a distance of roughly 0.05 AU, taking only 11.2 days to complete a single loop around its star. Proxima B lies in Proxima Centauri's Goldilocks zone, which is a region of a solar system where conditions are favorable for liquid water to form on the planet's surface. The fact that Proxima B is in the habitable zone of its star means that it could potentially harbor life.
