El mundo rocoso llamado LHS 1140b está situado en una zona habitable fuera de nuestro sistema solar, lo que abre un campo inédito para la astrobiología

Científicos detectaron por primera vez una atmósfera en un planeta rocoso ubicado en una zona habitable a 48 años luz de la Tierra. El hallazgo fortalece la búsqueda de mundos con…

The discovery is a major milestone in the search for habitability beyond the solar system.

LHS 1140 b: Astronomers have confirmed an atmosphere around a rocky exoplanet. This planet, LHS 1140 b, orbits within its star's habitable zone. Researchers detected helium gas in…

È l'ultima caratteristica osservata su LHS 1140 b, che è in una “zona abitabile” e potrebbe essere roccioso (ma non è il caso di entusiasmarsi troppo)
