    Here is the link to the page describing the discovery.

    Almost found a replica of our own solar system. Shouldn't be long before we find more of these.

    It's hardly like ours, in that all the planets are clustered close to the star. All but the outermost 2 planets (of which the last is unconfirmed) have orbital radii less than half that of Earth.

    Those larger planets, comparable to Uranus & Neptune in mass, may be superheated waterworlds with steaming global oceans, and dense atmospheres laden with water vapour. Might be a good places for interstellar tourists to lose weight...
