Humans have always believed that Earth is not the only planet in this universe where there is life. Scientists believe that there are many planets in this space where life exists. For decades, scientists have been searching for planets that are Earth-like and where life is possible. American space agency NASA has identified many such planets. However, till now it has not been concretely said about any planet that life is possible here. But now NASA has come to know about a planet where the chances of life are very high.

Which planet is that

The planet we are talking about is several light years away from Earth and this exoplanet has been named K2-18b. Let us tell you, this planet has been discovered by the James Webb Telescope. Scientists say that this planet is 8.6 times bigger than the Earth. NASA scientists say that this is a Hysene exoplanet. This planet revolves around Ketu-18 which is 120 light years away from Earth.

Is there an ocean on this planet?

NASA scientists believe that this planet is likely to be covered with a hydrogen rich atmosphere. That means oceans can be present here. NASA scientists say that there are many possibilities of life on this planet. For this, NASA wrote on its official website that the indications received from this planet are habitable for humans. However, it is so far from the Earth that there is still a long time for humans to reach here. But it cannot be ruled out that in the future humans will be able to reach many such planets.
