SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Para astronom menemukan sebuah planet luar angkasa yang dinamakan Gliese 12b. Planet tersebut diklaim mirip dengan Bumi dan berpotensi layak huni. Tim internasional yang menggunakan Satelit Survei Planet Luar Angkasa Transit NASA (TESS) menerbitkan temuan menarik mereka, Kamis (23/5) lalu.

Gliese 12b merupakan sebuah planet luar angkasa yang mengorbit bintang katai merah setiap 12,76 hari. Terletak di zona laik huni, planet tersebut memiliki suhu permukaan yang diperkirakan mencapai 42°C (107°F) sehingga memungkinkan cairan berada di permukaannya.

Gliese 12b adalah salah satu planet luar angkasa seukuran Bumi terdekat yang pernah ditemukan dengan iklim sedang dan orbit transit. Planet tersebut hanya berjarak sekitar 40 tahun cahaya dan memiliki jari-jari hanya 1,0 kali Bumi, menjadikannya salah satu planet luar angkasa terkecil yang pernah ditemukan sejauh ini.

Meskipun ukuran dan lokasinya berpotensi dihuni oleh manusia, keberadaan dan komposisi atmosfer Gliese 12b masih terus diteliti.
