The Discovery of Kepler-186f

The discovery of Kepler 186f is a big adventure in discovering planets like the Earth. The planet was named Kepler-186f, one of the five planets captured by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope around the star Kepler-186. . This star, which is smaller and cooler than the sun, is a star called M dwarf or red dwarf, pointing to a planet about five times as large as the Earth. The planet Kepler-186f is the most discreet, located within the circle furthest from the host star of the most resident zone within 10% of the Earth.

Scientists, who are studying data from the same Kepler Space Telescope at the beginning of April 2015 also announced the discovery of planet Kepler 186f, which is like the planet Earth of our Galaxy. Kepler-186f is 10% smaller than our planet. That star is half the size and quality of the sun. It travels around the sun every 130 days and receives one third of the solar radiation the earth receives. Of course, Kepler-186f is 500 light-years from Earth. This telescope launched in March 2009 was searching for over 150,000 stars in our Milky Way and was studying their planet and surrounding objects. In May 2013, one of the wheels of the telescope broke and it stopped working. The results of Kepler-452b and Kepler-186f are the results of 4 years of data from the telescope, the scientists are still under investigation.

Among the outer planets, the 2015 review concluded that Kepler-62f, Kepler-186f and Kepler-442b might be the most appropriate candidate for residence. These distances are 1200, 490, 1, 120 light years respectively. Among them, Kepler - 186f is the same size as the Earth, the Earth 's radius is 1.2 Earth, and it is located at the outer edge of a residential area surrounding a red dwarf. Among recent planetary candidates outside the ground, Taucetier is 11.9 light years away. It is located at the inner edge of the solar system residential area and the average surface temperature is estimated at 68 ° C (154 ° F).
