No. g liese 581c is a planet that orbits a star, Gliese 581.
It orbits the star 581 once every 13 days. Earth orbits its star, the sun, every 365 days. Which means that Gliese orbits faster than Earth.
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.

Probably, but we haven't found one yet (as at April 2013).
It will take me 20+ years since i can walk at the speed of light!;p Wait a minute, i get my hyperspace technology fixed and i will be there in a few minutes.. You guys are slow... it will take u guys 85,000+ years to get there!! In otherwards, you can't!

Scientists don't know yet.
20 light years
Gliese 581c is about 20 light years from Earth.With present technology,it would take many thousands of years to get there.
yes gliese 581g has bacteria alians and humans could live there too. You can build a spaceship i your lifetime.

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

It most likely be from a solar system called Gliese 581c. we can see 3 planets orbiting the small sun (smaller than ours) and the first 2 are to close to have liquid water but the one farthest away is in the right conditions to sustain life and is made of vary similar materials to earth.
Earth is similar to Gliese 581 c, in that they both are the third planet from their sun. See related links for information about Gliese 581 c.
