London: European Astronomers have discovered 50 new planets outside the solar system, allegedly one of 50 planets contain elements of life.
A total of 16 planets have large-sized planet Earth and its largest, HD 85 512 b, has ukuan 3.6 times the size of Earth. The planets are found at a distance of 36 light years from the constellation Vela as reported
Dailymail.
These findings suggest, more than half a star like the sun, the Milky Way also has a majority of planets lighter than Saturn. HD 85512 b was the only new planet, dubbed 'super-Earth' because it is located in the residential zone of the star system. There, scientists believe could find water in liquid form.
This makes it a potentially habitable planet. The findings are found to High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher (HARPS) mounted on the European Southern Observatory in Chile. "This finding marks a new era of planetary searches of dwellings," said one team member, Lisa Kaltenegger.
