Scientists discover a ‘second Earth’ twice the size of our planet near a red dwarf star

 In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified TOI-1846 b, a super-Earth exoplanet located 154 light-years away. This planet, nearly twice Earth’s size, orbits a red dwarf star and exhibits a potentially water-rich composition. Although its high temperature precludes habitability, TOI-1846 b offers valuable insights into the formation of rocky planets. In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified TOI-1846 b, a super-Earth exoplanet located 154 light-years away.
