Recently Discovered Earth-like planet

Scientists believe that our planet is going to destroy in future then where will we go and how will we survive. Now no need to worry human found some new planet like earth where the habitat may be present. Scientists believe it may be the backup plan for migration of Homo Sapiens to another planet where we can live or survive. There are some planets listed out from the list of the new planet which may consist of life and quite similar to our Earth. The ranking of similarities of the planet with earth is determined by ESI (Earth's Similarity Index).

4) Kepler 438B:

The Kepler 438B is first discovered in 2015 and it is located in 470 light years away from us. Kepler 438B was deemed one of the most ether-like planets ever discovered due to the Earth's Similarity Index or ESI which is 88% similar to earth hence making it a suitable candidate for the potential of life. Kepler 438B is just 12% larger and receives 40% more light comparing to our Earth. But still, it's missing some necessary qualities for habitation such as it doesn't have a proper atmosphere and the planet nearby star emits flares 10 times more powerful than our Sun. This planet might be the second option if it has a magnetic field like our planet. 

3) Kepler 62E:

Kepler 62E is one of the earth-like planets which is 1.6 times larger than Earth. It has the rocky surface and high probability of water and may be covered with oceans. Its one year is 122 days long and 1,200 light years form us. This planet is larger than earth so it is called as super earth. Which means it is larger than our earth would have similar characteristics that an exoplanet has cloudy sky warm and humid everywhere other than the polar caps and its stellar flux is 20% more than earth. Which is enough to trigger a runaway greenhouse effect which can decrease the chance of habitability.

2) Gliese 581G:

The Gliese 581G is also known as Zarmina which is 20 light years away from Earth and 1.5 times larger than our planet in size. It is discovered by astronomer Steve invoked in 2010. It's one year lasts for 67 days but unfortunately, this planet is tidally locked with its Sun. If a strong atmosphere exists on the planet it could circulate the heat from the sunny side over to the dark side making it much more habitable. Hence, it is possible for water to exist there with at least one ocean. It is larger in size comparing to earth and having the temperature between -35 degrees F to 10 degrees F due to the weaker energy output from its small Sun. All these features increase the chances of life on  581G up to 100%, which is an extremely optimistic presumption.

1) Kepler 22B:

The Kepler 22B is an exoplanet that orbit in the inner edge of the sun's habitable zone which is 600 light years away from us and discovered in December 2011. It is twice the size of the earth and has a year of 290 days. The surface is normal with the temperature of  11 degrees C in the worst case while 22 degrees C in the best case. So, it's reasonable for Humanity to survive here but it won't be a similar experience to earth. 22B's outer shell is likely to be composed mostly of either liquid or gas and the most optimistic estimate is that its liquid water combined with the greenhouse affected the atmosphere. It likely keeps the planet at a suitable temperature if something happens to earth this water-rich planet is the place where we will probably move to because it's a prime contender for our next home world. When we arrived there in the future there is a high possibility that we will be encountered by the lot of possible alien lives that may have evolved in the outer liquid layer.
