A new study conducted at the Australian National University (ANU) confirms and expands an earlier estimate [3] which claimed that there might be 100 million Earth-like planets in our galaxy.
The new research dramatically increases this number, suggesting the Milky Way could have billions of planets hospitable to life.
A research team of the Australian National University combined the data from the space telescope Kepler with the so-called Titius-Bode law [4], a 200 year-old hypothesis which was used to predict the orbits of Uranus and Ceres in our solar system before their actual discovery.
