A red dwarf star 20 light-years away is again providing hints that it hosts the first definitively habitable planet outside our Solar System. Robin Wordsworth, a member of the team from the Institute Pierre Simon Laplace in Paris, said that the findings were further evidence that the sheer variety of planets and environments far outpaced that which we see in our own Solar System. Dr Wordsworth said that the simulations are tantamount to a first definitive claim for a habitable exoplanet.
Now, French researchers have run computer simulations of the planet's atmosphere, arguing that it is likely to contain high concentrations of carbon dioxide. They contend that conditions could be suitable for oceans of liquid water as well as clouds and rainfall. If we find water on that planet, we can make oxygen and to make a fake atmosphere as well. The only thing is we will find water no nor. I think this observation will be a turning point on the space studying, because we won't be live on the earth forever, because the resources that we are using now is decreasing every day; therefore we have to find another "earth" in the future, and move to that "earth" in the final.

This is one of the great discoveries that the astronomers had found of the year. I agree with William’s idea that human won’t live on Earth forever, since the limitation of the resources. The fact that we found a star that human may be able to live is a fabulous news to hear. The fact that this star has liquid water, oxygen makes me think of living in there. I believe that we have a bright hope where we have potential of go out of Earth I can’t wait for that journey.
