  Scientists at the NASA’s Ames Research Center said today that for the first time, they have found a planet that orbits a star a lot like the sun and is smack in the middle of the “habitable zone.”

  The exoplanet was found using the Kepler telescope, which was launched specifically to look for habitable planets. So far the mission has found more than 1,000 new candidates. But, today as part the Kepler’s team’s first science conference, NASA announced Kepler-22b, a special exoplanet that if found to be rocky could host life with a comfy temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
