Super-Earths might be able to support life for 80 billion years.
Super-Earths keep their atmospheres habitable, living up to their moniker. That's because, according to a recent study, enormous Super-Earth planets can preserve their atmosphere and water for tens of billions of years.
Theoretically, the Earth-like exoplanets can sustain life for considerably longer periods of time than Earth; researchers on the latest study believe they may be habitable for up to 80 billion years. The age of the entire cosmos is estimated to be 13.7 billion years old as a point of comparison.
Super-Earths have atmospheres with increased power.
Computer simulations, according to the astronomers who conducted the new study, which was published in the journal Nature Astronomy, demonstrate that Super-Earths are capable of sustaining their primary atmospheres, which ar...
