This is the background to the discovery of super-Earth HD 20794 d by an international team. The new planet lies in an eccentric orbit, so that it oscillates in and out of its star's habitable zone.

Although a world of fire and ice might seem inhospitable, Dumusque doesn’t consider that a showstopper—especially, in fact, if HD 20794 d is more “planet ocean” than a supersized planet Earth.
