Today we are not going to talk about promotion or html but about a great discovery. The first known planet beyond the solar system that could harbor life as we currently know it has been recently discovered.It orbits a red dwarf star and the astronomers who discovered it said it likely contains liquid water.
The planet is estimated to be about 50 percent larger than Earth and was named as Gliese 581 c because of the red dwarf star it orbits, Gliese 581. The new earth like planet is located in the constellation Libra, some 20.5 light-years away.
Stephane Udry of the Geneva Observatory in Switzerland said that water can exist in liquid form on the planet as its surface temperature is between 32 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit. In degrees Celsius it is between 0 and 40.
