An international team of astronomers from La Silla, Chile have announced the discovery of a new planet outside of our Solar System. 
They say that this planet have a similar size to Earth compare with all other planet discover outside our Solar System that are at least 10 time larger. The similarity stops here this planet couldn’t be the Earth twin brother because his orbit is to close from his sun and there is no chance to have breathable atmosphere.
Professor Mayor the team leader of the astronomers declares: "This planet is probably not just rocky; it's very probably an icy planet - but relatively close to the star so at the surface, we should have some big ocean."
The US space agency (Nasa) launched a new kid of satellite/telescope who’s primary objective is to find Earth twin brother outside our Solar System. The method used by Nasa telescope is totally differed by astronomers from La Silla, Chile and give human kind a new hope to find our twins from out there, and finally to escape from our fear that we are all alone in the universe.
