NASA has found a an Earth size world called TOI 700 e

NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has helped scientists to find out an Earth-size world called TOI 700 e orbiting within the habitable zone of its star. A habitable zone is a distance at which liquid water could occur on a planet’s surface.

If we talk about the size of this world it is 95% of Earth’s size. Scientists have successfully found three planets in this system. These system names are 700b,c, and d. It would take an additional one more year for scientists to discover 700e.

According to NASA, Planet e is 10% smaller than planet d. The result of the discovery was accepted by the Astrophysical Journal Letters. In the southern constellation Dorado, the TOI 700 is a small cool M dwarf star located around 100 light years away.

If we talk about the TOI 700 b it is 90% Earth’s size and orbits a star every 10 days. We came to know about this news from the NASAExoplanet Twitter account which wrote, ” a second Earth-sized exoplanet is found hiding in a star’s habitable zone”.
