Gliese 12b’s temperature is about 42C, thus it might be livable. Actually, it’s one of the few worlds that we know of where life may exist in theory for humans.
Although it would be uncomfortable for humans, liquid water might exist on the planet’s surface according to our definition of “habitability,” which in this case it does, according to Larissa Palethorpe of the University of Edinburgh.
Ms. Palethorpe and a team of international scientists used NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, or TESS, to find the planet orbiting its star. They calculated that in less than a year.
It’s quite difficult to find smaller planets,” Ms. Palethorpe remarked. In order to determine the number of planets that are similar to Earth, we would like to learn more about Earth-sized planets.
