Astronomers Discover Hidden Earth-Like Worlds Orbiting Nearby Dwarf Stars

In the Search for Earth-like Worlds, We Should Probably Focus on Red Dwarfs

According to the latest studies led by Heidelberg University astronomers, low-mass stars quite often host Earth-like planets. Data collected as part of the CARMENES project were the basis of this finding. By analyzing the data, an international research team succeeded in identifying four new exoplanets and determining their properties.
