Discover more than 700 planets outside the solar system

The telescope of the US Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) recently discovered 715 planets outside the solar system, which could help study Earth-like planets.

The planet outside the solar system is also known as extraterrestrial . According to the AP, all newly discovered exoplanets are almost the same size as the Earth and reside in a system where many planets orbiting a host star.

These four planets orbit the host star in " habitable regions" . These are areas with temperatures not too hot or not too cold for liquid water, an important condition for life to exist.

According to the team, the planets are at least twice as large as Earth, so they can be planetary planets. Douglas Hudgins, a member of NASA's research team, said it was an important step toward the goal of searching for Earth-like planets.

By using the Kepler telescope, NASA researchers have so far discovered about 1,700 planets in the galaxy and nine extraterrestrial planets in the habitable zone. Astronomers hope that the discovery of exoplanets can provide important information in research and search for life beyond Earth.
