New Planet Discovered- Most Earth-Like Yet!

Who:: 11 European Astronomers (those were only the people who found the planet)
What:: A new planet was found by these astronomers. The planet has quite a few of the same living conditions as Earth. Some of these include having both day and night (well, one on each side of the planet), having warm and cold weather, just the right temperature- not too hot or too cold. Scientists also believe that there might even be a lot of water on the planet, which led to another shocking theory- is there actual life on this planet? Scientists are still trying to decide whether this is a true statement or not.
When:: April 26th. Isn't that today?!?
Where:: Uhh...not sure how to answer this one. I guess I'll just say it happened in outer space.
Why:: I'm pretty sure that while the Hubble Space Telescope was flying around space, it just kinda snapped the picture of the new planet and the astronomers saw it.
My Opinion:: OMG!! I think it's sooo cool that we might be able to house life on another planet! Even though you would weigh so much more on the new planet, you could have a birthday every 13 days!! =]!! That would be awesome. I really hope that scientists and astronomers find out more about this planet and its conditions. It would be the best place to go for our next family vacation!! =D

Here's the original article. <33
