Nearby Star System Hosts Five Potentially Habitable Rocky Planets

A nearby red dwarf star, L 98-59, just 35 light-years away, hosts at least five planets, all within the habitable 'Goldilocks' zone, making it a promising target for studying potential life-supporting conditions. The system's diverse planets, including a water-rich world and a temperate fifth planet, have been mapped with high precision using existing data, highlighting its significance for future atmospheric research with the James Webb Space Telescope.
