A nearby star system with two suns could potentially support an Earth-sized planet in a region where liquid water could exist, according to a new paper examining the dynamics of the system.
The paper, published in the Astrophysical Journal, focuses on a binary star system called 70 Ophiuchi that is trillions of miles from Earth, but in cosmic terms is considered relatively nearby at about 5 parsecs distance. For reference, the nearest star to our sun, Proxima Centauri, is 1.3 parsecs away.
