NASA says the planet newly discovered with an “unknown” environment, surprisingly similar to Earth

The discovery of a "fresh" exoplanet located 90 years light from Earth has excited scientists in their search for extraterrestrial life. According to a study published in Science Daily, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Researchers and New Mexico University discovered EXOPLANET 'TOI-1231 B' orbiting a star in Dwarf, otherwise known as a red dwarf. The scientists could characterize the star and measure both the radio and the mass of Toi-1231 B. According to the study, the researchers found that the planet, a tempered body of sub-Neptune with a 24-day orbit, has eight times closer to their star that the earth is in the sun. But its temperature is similar to our planet at home because Red Dwarf is less powerful, the team said. They said that their atmosphere is approximately 330 Kelvin or 140 de...
