You are an astronomer and are searching for planets in other stellar systems for which conditions on the surface of the planets are similar to the Earth. You have identified a candidate star, Tycho1601 that you know has same size to the Sun but 1.4 times the surface temperature of the Sun (our Sun). Around that star there are four planetsrotating around it. You are about to invest valuable telescope time in studying the individual planets which one you start with?A) Planet TychoA located at a distance that is half the distance between our Earth and our Sun.B) Planet TychoB located at a distance that is equal to the distance between our Earth and our Sun.C) Planet TychoC located at a distance that is double the distance between our Earthand our Sun.D) Planet TychoD located at a distance that is ten times the distance between our Earth and our Sun.
