Kailasa, Capella (Net-7): The sun has a twin in the left claw of Scorpio!

The Jenquai Sha'ha'dem have announced today that they have discovered the twin to Sol in 18 Scorpii, located in Scorpio, 46 light years from Earth.

Both stars are between 4 and 5 billion years old. They both have about the same radius, mass and surface temperatures. And they both rotate around every 25 days.

This exciting find could spell the discovery of a new system where human life could thrive.
