Infinite films and series of science fiction engage with the distant future, when mankind will have discovered the new Earth, έναν πλανήτη σε άλλο αστρικό σύστημα, που είναι παρόμοιος με το δικό μας και έχει τις κατάλληλες συνθήκες για την ύπαρξη και support life. Maybe we have not yet been able to colonize the universe, but the planet may have found it!
In a recent announcement, NASA declared the discovery of Kepler-186f, of the fifth planetary planet that moves around the red dwarf Kepler-186, in a stellar system in the direction of the Swan Constellation and at a distance of 490 years of light from ours.
The new Earth has a diameter of about 10% greater than our planet and her walk around her star needs 130 earth days. The planet is in the "habitable zone", a region at a sufficient distance from its star to have liquid water, which could lead to the existence of life.
Early estimates call for the planet to be rocky, but its mass and density have yet to be determined. This is expected to change in the near future and after NASA's new powerful telescopes come into operation, when we will have a clearer picture!
