According to lead researcher Abel Mendez, scientists have achieved much progress in the way of searching for exoplanets.

Scientists have discovered more planets with life.

According to lead researcher Abel Mendez, scientists have achieved much progress in the way of searching for exoplanets.

Currently, they are examining the 27 new planets found to have accurate conclusions. Meanwhile, HARPS (High-Precision Telescope) in Chile and Kepler Space Telescope are rapidly searching for a new solar out-of-planet planet every month.

The team primarily assessed the potential of life on a planet using three metrics: the change of energy from the stars that the planet receives, its mass and size.

So far, most of what we know about an exoplanet comes from simple physical assessments. This new study adds biochemical and chemical assessments.
