- In this ESOcast we look at how astronomers have used ESO's HARPS planet hunter in Chile, along with other telescopes around the world, to discover three planets orbiting stars in the cluster Messier 67. Although more than one thousand planets outside the Solar System are now confirmed, only a handful have been found in star clusters. Remarkably one of these new exoplanets is orbiting a star that is a rare solar twin - a star that is almost identical to the Sun in all respects.

I wonder if this planet has "end of the world" like earth has lol
IDENTICAL SOLAR TWIN FOUNDED - I think this is a good news =) check about.me/markkutauriainen that three planets found a star cluster.
