NASA's TESS discovers another Earth-like planet with potential for habitability
NASA has discovered another Earth-sized exoplanet within the habitable zone of its home star. The discovery was made utilizing information from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite .
The rocky planet, dubbed TOI 700 e, is approximately 95% the size of Earth, according to NASA. TOI 700 e is the fourth planet discovered in this system, but only the second that orbits in the star's 'Goldilocks zone,' the area around a star in which a planet can sustain liveable temperatures and liquid water.
NASA says the planet, located 100 light-years from Earth, orbits around a small M dwarf star along with two other planets in the constellation Dorado.
