A rocky planet that orbits a star and is roughly the size of Earth... must be Aliens there!...and what a bonus it’s only 39 light years away!

The aliens seem to have moved all the planets in the system into the habitable zone for terraforming.

Flat-Earthers are like Climatologists.
They believe without any real scientific proof, and when presented with real scientific proof to the contrary, they ignore it...............

“...the most likely place for life outside our solar system...”
Because “life” is so simple - just add water!

The most “Earth like” planet ever discovered is almost exactly the same size and mass as Earth and orbits a yellow dwarf star at close to the same orbit as Earth.
It is called Venus. I don’t think anyone would want to go live there.

Jesuit-11 planets are hellish.
To: Red Badger
Two words: tidal. locking.
Two more words: flare. star.
Plus, we will never know if there is life on any of those planets, because nobody living now will ever go there.
