Kepler 452b, also known as Earth 2.0, is a potentially habitable exoplanet located 1,402 light-years away. Discovered by the Kepler Space Telescope in 2015, its existence is statistically unproven. If real, it would be the first rocky super-Earth in the habitable zone of a sun-like star. Kepler 452b has a probable mass five times that of Earth, with a 385-day orbit. It may have active volcanoes due to its higher mass and density. The star it orbits is Kepler 452. Future exploration could make history by visiting this intriguing planet.
