Best Answer

If it is a rocky planet with a large iron core, Gliese 581c has a radius approximately 50% larger than that of Earth. Gravity on such a planet's surface would be approximately 2.24 times as strong as on Earth. If Gliese 581 c is an icy and/or watery planet, its radius would be less than 2 times that of Earth, even with a very large outer hydrosphere. Gravity on the surface of such an icy and/or watery planet would be at least 1.25 times as strong as on Earth.

What is earth two?

some people call Venus the second planet closest to our Sun Earth's twin. but it is more likely the person who was talking about Earth's twin was on about Gliese 581c, it was the first found Earth like planet. it is 20.3 light years from Earth, which in the great scheme of thing is relatively close. it doesn't rotate on a axis though, so half of it is in constant night, while the other half is in constant daylight. also it is about 1.9 times the size of the Earth and 7-11 billion years old. which when our planet is about 4.5 billion years old and it developed us in just a few million years, give Gliese 581c a high chance of having not just life on it, but intelligent life on it. but Gliese 581c might not have liquid water on the surface, but it depends on what its atmosphere is like
