NASA Satellite Discovers Planet That Could Potentially Support Life

Posted by in category: space

A NASA satellite has discovered a planet that could have the perfect conditions to host life.

The planet, which is about 31 light-years away from us, was picked up by the space agency’s TESS satellite and its conditions could support life, according to a bunch of scientists who have been researching it.

NASA has given the planet the name GJ 357 d, which isn’t very catchy, but researchers have given it the nickname ‘super-Earth’, due to the fact it has similar conditions to Earth but is much bigger.
