Talk:Planet 4546B/@comment-34563140-20180202222341

The trivia section about 4546b's sun and it's habitable zone is pretty redundant...For credentials; I'm studying astronomy, in my 3rd year right now

First off, we don't know how large the star 4546 is, so we CAN'T be sure how close 4546b is to it... IF you make the assumption that 4546 is similar to the sun, then we find that it's too close to properly support life, but that assumption doesn't hold true at all... 4546 may just as well be a much smaller star - not a red dwarf, because its light clearly has enough intensity of blue wavelength to make the sky and bright blue.

Second, we know very little of the atmosphere of 4546b... We know it's mostly nitrogen and oxygen, as is earth, but we don't know the completely composition, we don't know whether it has any upper atmosphere activity, such as an ozone layer, etc.

Let's not make assumptions about the star's goldilocks zone by 1 planet of which we know too little to conclude such things...
