KOI-1686.01 was also considered a potentially habitable exoplanet after its detection in 2011, until proven a false positive by NASA in 2015. [91] Several other KOIs, like Kepler-577b and Kepler-1649b, were considered potentially habitable prior to confirmation, but with new data are no longer considered habitable.
Located 31 light years from Earth, this planet is 1.26 times the mass of Earth and has a radius of 1.08 times the Earth's. Though Wolf 1069 b is likely tidally locked, its daylight side may still be habitable. It has similar characteristics to Proxima Centauri b and is one of the nearest discovered potentially habitable exoplanets to Earth.
This is a list of unconfirmed exoplanets discovered or detected by the NASA Kepler mission (Kepler Candidates from the NASA Exoplanet Archive) that are potentially habitable. [1] [2] Those already confirmed are listed by their Kepler names in the list of potentially habitable exoplanets, and the data may differ when the planets are confirmed ...
TOI-2257 b is an extremely eccentric (0.496) [2] exoplanet in or near the circumstellar habitable zone of the star TOI-2257, 188 light-years away. It is likely a sub-Neptune exoplanet, with a mass of 5.71 Mearth and a radius of 2.19 Rearth. [3]
The exoplanet lies 120 light-years away from Earth. The James Webb Space Telescope investigated a giant planet, K2-18b, that could be an ocean world, according to NASA. The exoplanet lies 120 ...
Two teams of scientists have discovered a theoretically habitable planet called Gliese 12b that’s smaller than Earth but bigger than Venus, just 40 light-years away.
A potentially habitable exoplanet that is roughly similar in size to Earth has been found in a system located 40 light-years away, according to a new study.
Wolf 1061 c is an exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Wolf 1061 in the constellation Ophiuchus, about 14.1 light-years from Earth.At the time of discovery, it was the closest known potentially habitable exoplanet to Earth, though several closer ones have since been found.
