Karvenia

Karvenia is a fictional planet located in the Kepler-186 star system. It is the fifth planet from its star, Kepler-186f, and orbits within the habitable zone. This means that conditions on Karvenia could potentially allow for liquid water to exist on its surface, a key ingredient for life as we know it.

The planet is believed to be terrestrial, meaning it is rocky like Earth, Mars, and Venus, rather than gaseous like Jupiter or Saturn. Early estimations suggest Karvenia is roughly the same size as Earth, though more precise measurements are still being gathered. Its atmosphere composition is currently unknown, but its presence in the habitable zone suggests a potential for a suitable atmosphere.

The Kepler-186 system is located approximately 500 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Cygnus. Kepler-186f, Karvenia's star, is a red dwarf star, which are known to be cooler and dimmer than our Sun. This means that planets orbiting red dwarfs need to be closer to their star to receive enough warmth to be in the habitable zone.

The discovery of Karvenia, along with other planets in the Kepler-186 system, has been significant in the search for exoplanets. It represents one of the closest Earth-sized planets found within the habitable zone of another star, fueling scientific curiosity about the possibility of life beyond our solar system. Further observation and research are ongoing to learn more about this intriguing exoplanet.
