PROJECT TITLE:

The hunt for earth 2 .0

ABSTRACT:

Earlier this year, astronomers announced the discovery of a planet not much bigger than Earth. Dubbed Kepler- 452b, the planet orbits a star like our own sun. Even more exciting, it orbits its star at just regarding the identical distance that Earth orbits the sun, with a year that lasts simply twenty days longer than our own. For the primary time, astronomers had found a world that might be called???if not an Earth twin???at least a close cousin.
