Another new planet close to the solar system has been discovered

As a group of astronomers has reported about the discovery of a new planet - possibly inhabitable - close to the solar system, space entrepreneur Jeff Manber has told RT why he thinks the discovery is so exciting.

“The planet is close - it’s 40 light years away. It’s not that hot - 400 degrees - and it has water, it seems to have an atmosphere,” Manber said.

Moreover, he added, “this is a low-budget-project, it’s called MEarth. It’s not something being done by NASA, it’s not a multi-billion dollar project. In just a short period of time, using small telescopes, they discovered a planet that looks like it could support some forms of life.”

Whatever , when the end of the world comes, no human being can run from it. Because all planets and stars will be perished. And judgment day will come after that.

"They ask thee about the (final) Hour - when will be its appointed time? Say: "The knowledge thereof is with my Lord (alone): None but He can reveal as to when it will occur. Heavy were its burden through the heavens and the earth. Only, all of a sudden will it come to you." They ask thee as if thou Wert eager in search thereof: Say: "The knowledge thereof is with Allah (alone), but most men know not." Surah Al A'raaf : Verse 187
