The red dwarf star itself emits only about 0.4% of our sun’s radiance, so the planet receives about 2% of the intensity that Earth receives from its sun. This is because Barnard’s star is in the class of M dwarf stars, cooler and less massive than our sun. It’s also an old star that predates our own solar system.

...

And it will still be shining long after the Sun is burned out.

Red dwarfs stay in their main sequence for trillions of years.

Should name the planet Ultima Thule and check out if Brian Blessed is hanging out there. [Space 1999 Reference]

Did CNN actually stumble on a "global warming" factoid there with regard to solar activity. They won't even realize it. The volume of koolaid they've consumed blinds them to it.

Lemme know when the scientists get a short signal indicating the numbers —> 3.1415 etc etc etc

That’ll be the DAY !!!

It’s not an Earth, and it’s not a Super-Earth either. And forget about going there. In other words, why this article?

hey algore:

See what happens when you mess around with global warming?
Now, send back those $100’s millions you filched.

...and the Nobel prize too while you’re at it.

Darn. My ancestor relatives used to live on that dying planet. I told them that global cooling will kill them off.

There is NOTHING in the data presented that warrants the title of the article referring to the planet as a “Frozen ‘Super Earth’ “.

One mere point of data, that of a planet being in a zone, relative to the distance from a solar system’s star, which hints that water - if it is even present - would be frozen on a that planet, is NOT justification to even call the planet “Earth like” much less a “Frozen Super Earth”.

Being truly Earth like requires numerous points of data, not one, and not even a handful; but many.

These titles only prove how UNSCIENTIFIC are so many so-called “science” publications.
