Astronomers find planets with better living conditions than on Earth

There are planets in space that are much more suitable for life than Earth. This is the conclusion reached by American and German astrobiologists. The research results are published in the journal Astrobiology.

Researchers collected data on temperature, humidity and other environmental factors for 4,500 known exoplanets and identified 24 of them that are slightly older, larger, warmer and possibly more humid than Earth, and also revolve around slowly changing stars with more life expectancy than our Sun. According to the authors, on such planets, which they gave the conventional name of potentially "superinhabited", life had more opportunities to develop to higher forms than on Earth.
