Gliese 667 Cc (also known as GJ 667 Cc, HR 6426 Cc, or HD 156384 Cc) [2] is an exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Gliese 667 C, which is a member of the Gliese 667 triple star system, approximately 23.62 light-years (7.24 parsecs; 223.5 trillion kilometres) away in the constellation of Scorpius.
The largest star in the system, Gliese 667 A (GJ 667 A), is a K-type main-sequence star of stellar classification K3V. [2] It has about 73% [5] of the mass of the Sun and 76% [2] of the Sun's radius, but is radiating only around 12-13% of the luminosity of the Sun. [15] The concentration of elements other than hydrogen and helium, what astronomers term the star's metallicity, is much lower ...
Artist's impression of Gliese 667 Cc. The brightest star in the sky is the red dwarf Gliese 667 C, which is part of a triple star system. [27] Gliese 667 Cc was originally described as one of two 'super-Earth' planets around Gliese 667 C, a dim red star that is part of a triple star system. The stars of this system have a concentration of heavy ...

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.
Some exoplanet candidates detected by radial velocity that were originally thought to be potentially habitable were later found to most likely be artifacts of stellar activity. These include Gliese 581 d & g , [ 57 ] [ 58 ] [ 59 ] Gliese 667 Ce & f, [ 17 ] [ 60 ] Gliese 682 b & c, [ 10 ] Kapteyn b , [ 61 ] [ 62 ] and Gliese 832 c .
