“…Though Earth-sized habitablezone planets are believed to be intrinsically common, they remain difficult to detect, and we only know of a handful today. Based on the NASA Exoplanet Archive Confirmed Planets table, 14 and using Gaia-based radii from Berger et al (2018) for Kepler planets, only four transiting planets (TRAPPIST-1 e, f, and g, Gillon et al 2017, andTOI 700 d, Gilbert et al (2020;Rodriguez et al 2020;Suissa et al 2020) and three nontransiting (Proxima Centauri b, Anglada-Escudé et al 2016, Teegarden's Star c, Zechmeister et al 2019, and GJ 1061d Dreizler et al 2020) have radii smaller than 1.25R ⊕ , or mass less than 2.0M ⊕ , and orbit within their star's conservative habitable zone. 15 In terms of size and incident bolometric flux, Kepler-1649c is a near analog of Earth.…”
