Where people can live 150,000 years
EPIC 228813918 b orbits its parent star every 4.5 hours, so one day on Earth is equivalent to 5 years on this planet.

An international team of scientists using data from NASA's Kepler space telescope to measure the orbits of distant planets discoveredplanetEPIC 228813918bOutside the solar system, the Sun rotates many times faster than the Earth.The research results were then sent to the scientific journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society of the UK, according to MSN.
PlanetEPIC 228813918borbits an M-type dwarf star called EPIC 228813918. With an orbital time of just under 4.5 hours, a day on Earth would be equivalent to more than 5 years on this planet. So if you lived onEPIC 228813918b, humans can reach a lifespan of150,000 years.
However, scientists believe that the strong radiation created when the planetEPIC 228813918bmoving too close how can mom affect life here.If you live a normal life, you will sleep for up to 2 years each time you lie down, so those 150,000 years will pass very quickly.
Interestingly, EPIC 228813918 b is roughly the size of Earth and is estimated to be composed of 45% iron. But it is not the shortest orbital planet ever discovered. Planet KOI 1843.03, which orbits its M-type dwarf star in a period of 4 minutes faster, is also about the same size and has a very high iron composition.
