A rocky world twice as massive as Earth has been found orbiting one star in a double star system at a distance similar to Earth's distance from the Sun. Both stars in the system, however, are red dwarfs, so the world is likely too cold to support life.
The discovery shows planets can exist in such a situation, which opens vast new possibilities.
