The newly discovered exoplanet is 37 light-years from Earth and was found by astronomers using a new instrument on the Subaru Telescope in Hawai'i.
Astronomers have discovered a 'super-Earth' orbiting a red dwarf star just 37 light-years from our solar system. Ross 508 b skims the so-called habitable zone of its parent star, the area in which surface temperatures are suitable to allow for the existence of liquid water, a key ingredient of life.
The newly discovered exoplanet has about four times the mass of Earth and was discovered using a new infrared monitoring technique.
