Closest Planet


Bored in looking to the same solar system? Are you looking for real adventure outside the system’s endless discovery? This next entry gets the ninth spot in our countdown.

9. Closest Planet
Epsilon Eridani b orbits an orange Sun-like star only 10.5 light years away from Earth. It is so close to us telescopes might soon be able to photograph it. It orbits too far away from its star to support liquid water or life as we know it, but scientists predict there are other stars in the system that might be good candidates for alien life.
