New Planet Discovery

A new planet has recently been discovered in a new galaxy, which is about the same size as our own planet. This planet discovery was found in the Gliese 581 galaxy by a group of European Astronomers. The planet is a little larger than our own and orbits a dim red star. This planet, which is 20 light-years away from our own planet, has no chance of life, or so scientists believe. The planet orbits to close to the sun, which would lead to heavy contact with deadly radiation. These results were announced at a conference at the University of Hertfordshire in England.
