Tau Ceti IV Revealed to be likely habitable.
Posted By: OrihausDate: 12/18/12 5:24 p.m.

"Astronomers have discovered what may be five planets orbiting Tau Ceti, the closest single star beyond our solar system whose temperature and luminosity nearly match the sun's. If the planets are there, one of them is about the right distance from the star to sport mild temperatures, oceans of liquid water, and even life."

"It's the fourth planet—planet e—that the scientists suggest might be another life-bearing world, even though it's about four times as massive as Earth."

Life imitates fiction, huh?
