NASA Just Discovered A Planet Even Better for Life Than Earth ► Subscribe: To make the search for life beyond our planet more systematic and focused, scientists have developed a metric known as the Earth Similarity Index, which measures the similarity of a planet or moon to Earth based on various parameters such as temperature, atmospheric pressure, and habitability. It ranges from 0.0 to 1, with 0.8 and 1 indicating that a planet is similar to Earth in every aspect. In recent years, advances in technology allowed us to uncover a multitude of exoplanets and moons with striking similarities to Earth. One of them was found in 2019 and called Teegarden B. This is a super Earth [Mass: Earths] orbiting an M-type star every 4.9 days at a distance of AU. The Teegarden’s Star is one of the closest stars to our solar system located about 12.4 light-years away from us. And although the red dwarf is 10 times less massive than our sun, and has a tempe
