Scientists discover thick atmosphere enveloping rocky so-called ‘super Earth’ planet
Researchers have identified a thick atmosphere enveloping a planet twice the size of Earth in a nearby solar system.
Named 55 Cancri e, this “super Earth” boasts a significant atmosphere composed of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, although precise amounts remain uncertain.
This finding, published in Nature, marks strong evidence of the planet’s atmospheric presence.
Despite its inhospitable surface temperatures, reaching up to 4,200 degrees Fahrenheit, scientists view the discovery optimistically, seeing it as a potential indicator for the existence of other rocky planets with atmospheres that may be more conducive to life.
The exoplanet, located 41 light-years away, orbits its star closely, resulting in permanent day and night sides, with its surface characterized by magma oceans, Fox News has reported.
