SPACE-GLIESE-667C-SYSTEM
EMBARGOED UNTIL 25 JUNE 2013, 12:00 CEST
A handout photo provided on June 24, 2013 by the European Southern Observatory (ESO) shows an artist’s impression of the view from the exoplanet Gliese 667Cd looking towards the planet’s parent star (Gliese 667C). In the background to the right, the more distant stars in this triple system (Gliese 667A and Gliese 667B) are visible and to the left in the sky one of the other planets, the newly discovered Gliese 667Ce, can be seen as a crescent. A record-breaking three planets in this system are super-Earths lying in the zone around the star where liquid water could exist, making them possible candidates for the presence of life. This is the first system found with a fully packed habitable zone.
