Exoplanet : Tau Ceti e - Far away Planet illustration

Tau Ceti e is a super-Earth exoplanet orbiting the star Tau Ceti, located about 12 light-years from Earth. It was discovered in 2012 using the radial velocity method.
Tau Ceti e has a mass of about 4 Earth masses and an orbital period of 168 days. It is located in the habitable zone of its star, which is the region where liquid water can exist on the surface of a planet.

If Tau Ceti e has an atmosphere, its surface could be temperate, with an average temperature of 15 to 20 degrees Celsius. This could make it habitable for life, as we know it.
