Summary:
- This article discusses the discovery of a new exoplanet, a planet that orbits a star outside our solar system. The exoplanet, named TOI-1452 b, is about 100 light-years from Earth and is roughly twice the size of Earth.
- The exoplanet was detected using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), a space telescope that searches for exoplanets by looking for the slight dimming of a star's brightness as a planet passes in front of it.
- Astronomers believe TOI-1452 b may be a rocky, Earth-like planet, and they plan to study it further using other telescopes to learn more about its composition and potential to support life.
