TOI-700 e is an exoplanet discovered in 2023 by NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Orbiting TOI-700, a small, cool M dwarf star located about 100 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Dorado, this planet has captured the attention of astronomers due to its unique characteristics. TOI-700 e is estimated to be about 95% the size of Earth, making it a potentially rocky world. It completes an orbit around its star every 28 days and is located in the star's "optimistic" habitable zone, suggesting it could potentially support liquid water on its surface under the right atmospheric conditions.
As part of a multi-planet system that includes three other known planets (b, c, and d), TOI-700 e stands out as one of the few Earth-sized planets discovered in the habitable zone of its star.
The universe is vast and full of secrets. We must always be ready to venture into the unknown
