With a gas mask as the atmosphere doesn't look breathable. Other than that that's darn close to Earth.

This system could be a nice candidate for a solar system twin. But this is an old screen from some pre-0.95 version sad

Although not an earth twin by "specs" - earth's cold little sister on the other side of the galaxy biggrin "



Just couldn't resist capturing this so familiar picture smile

I know this thread is too old, is almost dead but couldn't resist posting what I found recently on 0962:



Although not an earth twin, its mass/size ratio gives a pretty nice gravity 92% earth's and a comfortable 285 Kelvins temp together with a 1.6 atm press. Could be habittable...

Here are some more pics:






Its more like a desert class planet with a few bunch of lakes - reminds me of a better fated Mars or a terraformed mars-like world smile

^Wow, that's a very close hit! Other than the short day and the two extra moons, it's pretty much an exact twin of Earth.

As apenpap said thats really close. Would've been nearly perfect if it had the Earths atmosphere.

Veery close indeed! Unfortunately it is an Earth twin on a galaxy far far away - 6.79 billion LYs blink
Contest requires the planet to be in Milky Way... dry

Nice find though FiahOwl wink

This one comes pretty close, and it is in the Milky Way. It's parent star is a G6 V, so its earthlike in many aspects, except for its extreme axial tilt.

There are a lot of differences. The size is extremely different, much lower surface gravity, atmosphere is denser, and climate is colder. The only similarities it has to Earth are blue air and the rotation period.
