Super Discovery in the bell zone of red dasn
It is the third Explanet found in this system in the residential zone of one of the stars close to the sun.

A group of international scientists identified a supermarket in orbit in the residential area of the nearest red dwarf, near 59 light years.
“GJ 3998 D is welcome to the planetary census of our universal environment,” said Atanas Stefanov, a doctor of the Law Kaiksa Foundation at IAC and La Laguna University (ULL) (ULL). Rivista astronomy & astronomy.
This supermarket seems to be in the residential zone of one of the nearest stars of the sun.
“It gives us another reason for looking for residential planets around us,” said Stefanov.
Newly discovered planet, GJ 3998 d, super earth with a mass of six times larger than Earth, It is in the residential “optimistic” zone of its star and completes an orbit every 41.8 days.

At this distance, the GJ 3998 D 20% of the star radiation receives, compared to the earth from the sun.
“The GJ 3998 is much smaller and cold than the sun, which moves the residential zone close to the star,” explained IAC researcher and study cooperation Alejandro Supereno Mascareno.
“Although it is definitely different from the earth, if the planet is stone, it can host liquid water on its surface, which is one of the main needs of life,” I. Gonzalez Hernandez, IAC researcher and co -author said.
The suitability of this system for the sun makes the GJ 3998 D an attractive candidate for weather qualities.
“It is possible to test the presence of the atmosphere and seek oxygen using a future concert in the ESO’s End Large Telescope (ELT).
The GJ 3998 D is a good goal to the 50 -meter future telescope exo founder (ELF) under the IAC -led telescope, they look for biomarkers in the Explanet environment, Rafael Rebo, IAC researcher and Study Co -Atore.
Red dwarfs are small and cold stars than the sun
This innovation is part of the Hadies program, the international attempt to explore planetary systems around red dwarf Gallio National Telescope (TNG) No Observatario Roke de Los Mucos, M La Palma.
The red dwarfs are small and cold stars than the sun and almost three -quarters of our galaxy’s star population, IAC.
Their low mass and abundance make priority goals for them for less mass planets, and one of these red dwellings is GJ 3998, its suitability (59 light years) and the moderate star activity are particularly interested in society. There were 9.46 quarter kilometers in a light year.
