Just a glance at the countless formations in the firmament shows: The dimensions of the universe far exceed our imagination. When we consider that our view of the stars covers only a tiny fraction of the entire universe, it becomes clear that we are still far from having unlocked all the secrets of our galactic neighborhood. In addition to the exploration of already known celestial bodies, the search for previously undiscovered planets is one of the most important fields of modern space research. The main focus of scientific interest is on those objects that are most similar to our Earth in terms of their composition. The search for potentially habitable planets has kept the scientific community on tenterhooks for several decades. A recent discovery by NASA leads now to the fact that the list of Earth-similar celestial bodies has been supplemented by a further, unusual representative. Which other planets exhibit amazing parallels to our terrestrial homeland? You’ll find out in the following video.
