Another measure is the Earth Similarity Index, which compares the planet’s radius, density, and surface temperature to that of Earth. “The nearest Earth 2.0 is probably only a dozen light ...

The Earth 2.0 telescope will be able to find Earth-size worlds on similar orbits to our planet's. "This is the first step in finding a planet that might be habitable," Tasker said.
