Hubble: This exoplanet likely regenerated its atmosphere after completely losing it – ScoopCube – ScoopCube
The planet GJ 1132 b, about 41 light years away, fascinates scientists because of its similarity to Earth. Its mass is about 1.6 times that of our world with a radius of 1.4 larger. The exoplanet revolves around a red dwarf that is five times smaller than our sun and 200 times less luminous. Its name is derived from that of its host star. The latter is called GJ 1132 based on the German astronomers Wilhelm Gliese and Hartmut Jahreiß.
