There is New Earth "Formed"

It has been found other than the earth belongs to us by the researchers. Reportedly, the Herschel Space Obervatory (HSO) has just got the picture 'discs' first ice giant steam in young star clusters. This picture gives a hint of another Earth.

In these observations, visible water around this star extends to 'tip' of existing space and water ice tends to be a comet that will hit the world's oceans and bringing with him young. These findings suggest, the planet covered in water like Earth are common.


"Our research shows, there is enough water in the discs to fill thousands of Earth's oceans," said Michiel Hogerheijde astronomers from Leiden Observatory in the Netherlands. Ultraviolet light from nearby stars made ​​from ice-free water molecules and create a thin layer of gas.

TW Hydrae stars 10 million years old is located 175 light years from Earth in the constellation Hydra. Giant disc that surrounds the star has a size of nearly 200 times the distance between Earth and Sun.

Over the next few thousand years, astronomers believe the material in this disc will collide and become planets, asteroids and other cosmic forms. Astronomers believe, TW Hydrae and ice discs represent many other young star system that gives a rich knowledge of how planets are formed of water throughout the universe.

Now, if this really happens, it means there will be candidates for a new earth. What about the life on it?
