Recently, NASA announced that its Kepler probe has found Earth’s closest relative. They don’t know everything about it, but it’s the closest match they’ve ever found.

“Today, Earth is a little less lonely,” Kepler researcher Jon Jenkins said.

Named Kepler-452b, this planet is about 60% bigger than Earth, and is approximately 1,400 light years away in the Cygnus constellation. They say there could be liquid water, since the planet is in the habitable zone of its star.

The odds of it having a rocky surface are “better than even”, NASA said, and the gravity is about twice as much as Earth’s. The planet “almost certainly has an atmosphere,” Jenkins said, although they can’t figure out what it’s made of. They assume it would be denser than our planet’s, and that it would have active volcanoes.

It has an orbit that is 385 days long, which is extremely similar to our 365. Also, since estimations will tell us it’s been in existence for 6 billion years, there could easily be life on Kepler-452b.

“That’s substantial opportunity for life to arise, should all the necessary ingredients and conditions for life exist on this planet,” Jenkins said in a statement.
