K2-18b: A Potentially Earth-Like Planet 110 Light-Years Away

Located approximately 110 light-years from Earth, K2-18b is a planet that has recently gained attention due to its potential resemblance to Earth and the possibility of it supporting alien life. Research conducted by the University of Toronto, based on data from the European Southern Observatory (ESO), suggests that K2-18b could be a larger version of our planet. However, there is still limited information available about its characteristics, leaving much of its nature to speculation. Furthermore, it is uncertain whether K2-18b is tidally locked, meaning that one side of the planet permanently faces its star, creating distinct day and night sides with a twilight zone in between.
