Hubble helped identify exoplanets that are water worlds


A group of researchers has found evidence that two previously discovered exoplanets orbiting a red dwarf are most likely water worlds where water occupies most of the planet’s volume.

These worlds are located in the Kepler-138 system at a distance of 218 light-years from us in the constellation Lyra and are not similar to any planet in the Solar System.
