It Walks Like a Sun and Talks Like a Sun: Scientists Discover Solar Twin

It's hard for researchers to gauge what's going on in the long-term with the heavenly bodies. But now, scientists in Brazil have found a solar twin to the sun that may help shed light on just that. Approximately 250 light-years away, the star named HIP 102152 is a virtual match for our own sun. Sitting in the constellation Capricornus, the star is referred to as a "solar twin" for the degree to which it's identical to our planet. However unlike the Sun, this star is 8.2 billion years old. Since our sun is 4.6 billion years old, scientists believe they'll be able to learn more about what's in store for our own star as it ages in the coming eons.
