A new study provides the most accurate estimate of the frequency that planets that are similar to Earth in size and in distance from their host star occur around stars similar to our Sun ... Source
It has been a mystery for us whether life exists on other planets in our galaxy around other sun like stars or not, and it is quite a difficult task if the planets are billions and billions in numbers.
With these numbers, which scientists and researchers got from Kepler (NASA's space telescope), they are now able to focus their efforts to earth like planets. These planets are at the same distance from their stars (Sun like stars) as earth is from the sun.
It has opened new doors to space, astronomical and astrophysical research.
