Will we ever find an exoplanet just like Earth?
With oceans, trees, animals, and maybe...some kind of humanoid aliens?
How will this planet be? Maybe it will be smaller than Earth, maybe bigger.
Astronomers are now looking for these kinds of planets, but it is not so easy to spot them.
With the help of our current techniques, we are able to spot a lot of massive and large planets, but it's way harder to detect Earth-sized ones.
Of course, there are some exceptions. The first planet to ever be found similar to Earth was Kepler 22-b.
It was detected in 2009 and today we know this amazing planet is orbiting in the habitable zone of its host star.
But what's a habitable zone? And what are the main features of Kepler 22-b? There could be life on this planet?
