The planet, called Gliese 581g, is near the middle of the “habitable zone” ofits parent star, That means it is just the right cistance and temperature ~ not too het, and not too cald ~ for liquid water to remain on its surface and where you have liquid water, you have the possibility of life ‘Their studies show that Gliese 581g is similar in size to Earth, and that it has enough gravity to be able to hold onto an atmosphere. The planet has the highest ranking on a scale known as the “Earth Similarity Index,” ~ meaning that itis more likely to be able to support life than Mars cr the Moon. What’s more, at 20 light-years away, relatively close. € Sois it possible that one day human beings might be living on another planet? Well, why not? ‘Already, companies are offering trips into space. ‘American Dennis Tito paid $20 million back in 2001 to go up to the International Space Station. 4s technology has improved, prices have come down. Today, several commercial companies offer tickets to space for a fraction of the price Tito paid. Virgin Galactic offers flights to the edge of space for as little as $200,000! The sky is no longer the limit. NASA's Kepler space telescope has already found more than 1,000 planets which might support life.
