Astronomers may have discovered another nearby planet.
- Scientists have found evidence of a third planet orbiting Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Sun.
- Of course, 'close' is a relative term here - Proxima Centauri is four light years away from Earth, or roughly 25 trillion miles.
- The discovery was made using an instrument called the Echelle Spectrograph for Rocky Exoplanets and Stable Spectroscopic Observations, or ESPRESSO.
- Do you think we'll ever find life elsewhere in the universe?
