Habitable planets are always a target for astrophysicists when new stars are being examined, and the recent subject of a 2-year study into objects recorded by the K2 Second Light Mission has flown to the forefront of the astronomical community. With water vapour detected in its atmosphere, many interpreted this as a sign of habitability, and now a debate is ongoing between those who believe this planet is a so-called "Super Earth" or a more predictable and lifeless "Mini-Neptune". In this video, we will examine the each type's profile and the media reception, as we again begin to wonder if our planet is not as unique as we thought it was in the galaxy.
