Hey, hey, heyyy, Twiskies! I'm back today with another interesting topic! Today's topic is different from the previous ones. You might be bored after I published two article about star and mythology, right? hehehe my bad, my bad. So, because of that, today we're going to discuss about Planets! are you excited, Twiskies? Because I am. 

But, Twiskies, before we start, have you ever heard about exoplanets? If not, then I'll explain it to you in short. Exoplanets is the planets outside our solar system that orbiting a star, just like us and our earth orbiting our sun. Is it enough information of exoplanets? Now let's get started! Let's explore the universe and see the habitable exoplanets!


Kepler-186f

So, Twiskies, we have Kepler-186f as the habitable exoplanet that we will explore first today. The planet looks like the picture below.

This planet was found in 2014 by NASA's Kepler Telescope. The size of this planet is pretty similar to our Earth. To be exact, it's 10 percent larger than our Earth, Twiskies. Kepler-186b orbiting a dwarf red star called Kepler-186 that is dimmer and colder than our sun. This planet is also resided in habitable zone of its star. As for its orbit, Kepler-186b needs about 130 days to complete its orbit. This planet is about 500 light-years apart from our Earth, Twiskies.

Kepler-452b

Let's move to the next exoplanet! for the second exoplanet, we have Kepler-452 here! ready to explore it together, Twiskies? Let's go!

This planet was discovered in 2015 and it's the first planet that orbits around a star that has similar size to our sun. Unlike the previous planet, Kepler-452b orbiting G2 type of star called Kepler-452. It's the same type as our Sun, but Kepler-452 is a bit older, Twiskies. As for the size of this planet, it's 60 percent larger than our Earth and its star is 10 percent larger than our Sun. Also, Kepler-452b needs 385 days to finish its orbit, just 20 days longer than our earth. That's why this planet is labeled as Earth 2.0 or Earth's Cousin, it has so many similarity with our Earth. While for its gap from our Earth is a bit further than the previous planet, it's 1.400 light-years apart. 

Trappist-1e

Okayy, Twiakiesss, now we're arrive at the last exoplanet, its Trappist-1e!

Trappist-1e is one of  planet that orbits the ultra-cool dwarf star Trappist-1, located about 40 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius. It's pretty close, right, Twiskies? This planet is slightly smaller than our Earth, with about 91 percent of Earth's radius. As for its orbit, Trappist-1e just needs 6 days to finish its orbit! It's impressive, isn't it? It's because the planet orbits very close to its star, much closer than Mercury orbits our Sun. Also there is an interesting study about this planet, the study reveals that some of planets in this Trappist-1 planet system could hold more water than our Earth's ocean.

Sooo, Twiskies, that was all the exoplanets I have in mind, what do you think? do you interested in moving into one of the planets above? hehehe kidding, kidding. I know it's impossible for us to travel around the space and move from one planet to another planets casually, but who knows! in the future it could be possible!

Cya, Twiskies!
