Episode description
Australian astronomers have discovered HD 137010 b, a potentially habitable planet located 150 light years from Earth. The planet orbits a sun-like star, is approximately 6% larger than Earth, and has a surface temperature below minus 70 degrees Celsius. Despite being relatively close in galactic terms, the journey to this planet would take tens or hundreds of thousands of years with current technology.
