Kepler 452B "cousin of the earth" ...
- Kepler's planet is one of the most Earth-like planets . It has an atmospheric cover and it is 1.5 million years older than Earth.
- It is also revolves around a star from the G2 rating , similar to our Sun.
- It is also revolves in a viable orbit. and it is farther from its sun only 5% more than the earth farther from our sun.
- 1400 light years away from the earth and the number of days a year 385 days ..
And its size exceeds earth size by 60%.
- There are more than 4000 Earth-like rocky planets in our galaxy.
- 11 Earth-like planets have been detected so far, all in the habitable zone but slightly larger than Earth.
Do you think we are alone in the universe?

"Do you think we are alone in the universe?" If we are, then it seems an awful waste of space.
