A super-Earth with life potential

Super-Earth's Long Orbit Makes It Only Occasionally Habitable
The exoplanet HD 20794d swoops in and out of its habitable zone every few hundred days, making for an extreme climate.
Newly discovered super-Earth orbits in and out of its star's habitable zone. Could life survive its extreme climate?
Located less than 20 light years away, HD 20794d could potentially be one of the most Earth-like planets found so far, despite its extreme climatic variability.
'Super Earth': the exoplanet in the 'habitable zone' for alien life
An exoplanet is a planet outside our solar system that usually orbits a star in our galaxy. More than 7,000 have been found in the Milky Way since the first confirmed discovery in the 1990s, and "billions more remain to be discovered", said Tech Explorist.
New ‘super-Earth’ could aid in search for other life in space
But according to an international team of researchers, including some from the University of Geneva, in a study published Tuesday in Astronomy & Astrophysics believe the super-Earth, dubbed HD 20794 d, could offer new insights into what makes a planet capable of supporting life.
A super-Earth laboratory for searching life elsewhere in the Universe
Thirty years after the discovery of the first exoplanet, we detected more than 7000 of them in our Galaxy. But there are still billions more to be discovered! At the same time, exoplanetologists have begun to take an interest in their characteristics,
