Astronomers have discovered an Earth-like planet orbiting a distant star - one that shows promising signs it could potentially support life.

The planet, dubbed 'Wolf 1069b', orbits the red dwarf star known as Wolf 1069, roughly 31 light years from Earth.

The planet is of similar mass to Earth and orbits within the star's 'habitable zone' - meaning it could have both an atmosphere and liquid water.

There are currently only a handful of potentially habitable planets known to scientists, and Wolf 1069b is among the closest to Earth.
