Kepler-452b is the first near-Earth-size world to be found in the habitable zone of star that is similar to our sun. Until its discovery in 2015, the Kepler telescope had only detected 12 Earth-size planets (smaller than twice the size of Earth) in the habitable zone of their smaller and cooler stars. Kepler-452b is the first planet orbiting a star about the same size and temperature as the sun.
