Astronomers using JWST have detected a giant exoplanet in the habitable zone of Alpha Centauri A, our nearest Sun-like star.

The exoplanet exists in their star's habitable zone, or just the right distance from the star that liquid water might potentially exist on their surfaces.

The new super-Earth exoplanet is situated "close to us" -- only 137 light-years away -- and orbits within a "habitable zone," according to NASA.

The search for habitable exoplanets is a key priority and sits at the pinnacle of exoplanet science. The science community stated that clearly in the 2020 Survey on Astronomy and Astrophysics 2020 ...
