Proxima Centauri b is an exoplanet orbiting Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our Sun. This super-Earth resides within its star’s habitable zone, raising possibilities for liquid water on its surface. Its proximity makes it a key target for astronomical study and future investigation by scientis...
TRAPPIST-1e is an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the ultra-cool dwarf star TRAPPIST-1. Its location within the habitable zone—the region around a star where liquid water could exist on a planet’s surface—makes it notable. Scientists study this world to assess its potential for hosting conditions sui...
Kepler-186f is an exoplanet approximately Earth-sized orbiting the red dwarf star Kepler-186. It resides within its star’s habitable zone, meaning liquid water could potentially exist on its surface. This makes it notable as one of the first discovered planets similar in size to Earth and residing i...
TRAPPIST-1f is an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the TRAPPIST-1 star. It resides within the habitable zone where liquid water could exist on its surface. Its larger size and lower stellar flux compared to our Sun may result in significant ice coverage. Scientists study this planet for potential sign...
TRAPPIST-1g is an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the TRAPPIST-1 star. Its notable size, approximately 1.13 times that of Earth, and location within the habitable zone make it a key target in the search for potentially life-supporting worlds. Scientists study this rocky planet to assess its atmospher...
Kepler-452b is an exoplanet orbiting a G-type star approximately 1,400 light-years from Earth. It’s notable as a super-Earth within its star's habitable zone, suggesting potential for liquid water on its surface. Scientists study this planet to understand the characteristics of potentially habitable...
Kepler-1649c is an exoplanet roughly Earth-sized orbiting a red dwarf star named Kepler-1649. Its location within its star’s habitable zone—the region where liquid water could exist on the surface—makes it notable. Scientists study this super-Earth to assess the potential for habitability around M-d...
K2-18b is a sub-Neptune exoplanet orbiting the M dwarf star K2-18. Located within its star’s habitable zone, it has garnered significant attention due to potential liquid water on its surface. Scientists are studying this planet to understand atmospheric compositions and assess conditions suitable f...
Kepler-442b is an exoplanet orbiting a cooler star approximately 1,200 light-years from Earth. Its size and position within its star’s habitable zone make it notable for potential liquid water on its surface. Scientists study this super-Earth to understand the diversity of planets capable of support...
Kepler-62f is an exoplanet located in the Kepler-62 system. It’s notable as a super-Earth orbiting a red dwarf star within its habitable zone. This means it receives approximately the same amount of energy from its star as Earth does, raising possibilities for liquid water on its surface. The planet...
Super-Earth announced in 2013 orbiting within the habitable zone of the K-type star Kepler-62; at ~1.61 Earth radii it was among the most potentially habitable exoplanets known at that time.
Discovered in 2017, LHS 1140 b is a super-Earth exoplanet notable for orbiting within the habitable zone of a red dwarf star, making it a prime target for atmospheric characterization.
TOI-700 d is an Earth-sized exoplanet discovered by NASA's TESS satellite in 2020, notable for being one of the few potentially habitable worlds located in its star's habitable zone.
Super-Earth in the Kepler-69 system announced in 2013, orbiting near the inner edge of its habitable zone and considered a potential Venus analog rather than an Earth-like habitable world.
Outer planet of the Kepler-47 circumbinary system announced in 2012, notable as the first circumbinary planet found orbiting within a stellar habitable zone.
Teegarden's Star b is a potentially Earth-like planet in the habitable zone of Teegarden's Star (~12.5 ly), discovered in 2019 by Mathias Zechmeister's team.
Ross 128 b is a temperate, near-Earth-mass planet orbiting red dwarf Ross 128 (~11 ly), discovered in 2017 by Xavier Bonfils et al. using the HARPS spectrograph.
GJ 667Cc is a super-Earth orbiting within the habitable zone of the M-dwarf component of the triple-star system GJ 667, ~22 light-years from Earth, confirmed in 2012.
Super-Earth confirmed in 2014 orbiting within the habitable zone of Kepler-296, a red dwarf binary system ~1,200 light-years away, making it one of few potentially habitable planets known around a binary star.
