- Astronomers have discovered a new planetary system with two Earth-like planets about 120 light-years away from Earth.
- These planets are called super-Earths (planets larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune) and are rocky in nature.
- The system shows an unusual structure where a rocky planet is located beyond gas giants, unlike our Solar System.
- This discovery challenges existing theories of planetary formation and suggests different evolution patterns.
- Scientists used space missions like the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and CHEOPS to detect the planets.
