PLANET FOUND IN HABITABLE ZONE OF NEAREST STAR.

Today scientists have announced the discovery of a planet within the habitable zone of the nearest star "S". They say is has an Earth Similarity Index of a whopping 0.9998 or greater, and spectroscopy has found evidence of an oxygen rich atmosphere. Since the planet, dubbed "S-3" is in the habitable zone of its star, it is thought to have a significant covering of liquid water.

The discovery was at first considered incredible, until another scientist realized that the planet S-3 is in fact Earth.
