Two ancient worlds found just 13 light-years from Earth

Two ancient worlds found just 13 light-years from Earth - Los Angeles Times: "Scientists have discovered two ancient planets orbiting a strange old star right in our stellar backyard.

One of the newly found planets is perhaps five times the mass of Earth, and astronomers believe it is the right distance from the host star to potentially sustain liquid water on its surface. That means it could be suited for life."
