Scientists announced the discovery of 2 new Earth-like planets within our own galaxy so similar to our own that they have already shot up into the top 20 contenders for future human colonization. The planet Teegarden discovered in 2003, 8 billion years old, is 10 times lighter than the sun, is just 12.5 light-years away in the Aries constellation. Teegarden b has a 60% chance, while Teegarden c is similar to Mars.
