In this captivating KZbin video, we delve into the exciting discovery of a planetary system with seven exoplanets, including two large super-Earths and five mini-Neptunes orbiting the star Kepler-385. These fascinating worlds are extremely hot and all lie within the habitable zone. Astronomers made this discovery by reanalyzing data from the Kepler Space Telescope.
What's particularly remarkable is that these exoplanets are all larger than Earth and represent planet types that don't exist in our own solar system. The discovery brings to mind a similar planetary system called Kepler-11, raising many questions about the formation and evolution of such systems. Additionally, a comparative analysis reveals that multi-planet systems tend to have shorter orbital periods and more circular orbits.
This discovery broadens our understanding of the diversity of planetary systems and prompts contemplation of the mysteries of the universe. Viewers are encouraged to share their thoughts and questions in the comments and to subscribe to the channel to stay updated.
