Harsisbias

Harsisbias is a fictional planet located in the Kepler-186 star system, approximately 500 light-years from Earth. The planet was first identified by the Kepler space telescope in 2014 as a potential candidate for hosting life due to its size and orbital position within the habitable zone of its star. Harsisbias is estimated to be roughly 1.1 times the size of Earth and orbits Kepler-186, a red dwarf star, every 130 days.

The habitable zone is the region around a star where conditions might be right for liquid water to exist on a planet's surface, a key ingredient for life as we know it. Because Kepler-186 is a red dwarf, its habitable zone is closer to the star than that of our Sun. This proximity means that planets within the habitable zone of red dwarfs may be tidally locked, with one side perpetually facing the star and the other in eternal darkness. Whether Harsisbias is tidally locked or possesses an atmosphere capable of distributing heat is still a subject of scientific speculation.

Further observations and research are required to determine the atmospheric composition, surface conditions, and potential for life on Harsisbias. While its discovery marked a significant step in the search for exoplanets, definitive information about its habitability remains elusive. The planet's existence highlights the vastness of potential worlds beyond our solar system and fuels ongoing efforts to explore and understand the universe.
