7月23日，美国国家航空航天局(简称为NASA)宣告发觉开普勒-452b，是迄今为止与地球最为相近行星。该行星距离地球1400光年，NASA将其命名为“地球2.0”，因为它是第一颗人类在宜居带里与太阳相同恒星附近发觉行星。

这颗系外行星编号Kepler452b，其直径约为地球1.6倍，与恒星之间距离与日-地距离相近。恒星Kepler452距离地球大约430秒差距(约合1400光年)，位于天鹅座。

天文学家称，这是至今为止发觉最靠近地球“孪生星球”，跟地球相同指数为0.98，而且有可能拥有大气层和流动水。

NASA说这个星球上可能有活火山，有存在生命可能性，行星应该有60亿年历史，地球为45亿年。
