The planet (Gliese 581D) was discovered using the HARPS instrument on the European Southern Observatory 3.6 meter telescope in La Silla, Chile.
It was discovered on 24 April 2007 by the team of Stéphane Udry of the Geneva Observatory in Switzerland.
Gliese 581 c is too hot for life because it is closer to its star. This planet is similar to venus. This planet traps too much heat that causes a strong greenhouse effect. The temperature is too high and the atmosphere is nearly all carbon dioxide. Gliese 581 d is at the right distance for liquid water to exist. It is at the Goldilocks zone just like the earth. That means life could exist on Gliese d. This planet have the right temperature. It has a magnetic field and a rich oxygen and nitrogen atmosphere.
The estimated temperature on Gliese 581 c, a planet outside of our solar system, is likely to be too hot to support life as we know it. Its proximity to its star, Gliese 581, means that the surface temperature could reach levels found on Venus in our solar system, making it inhospitable for life as we understand it.
No. g liese 581c is a planet that orbits a star, Gliese 581.
Gliese is not a planet but rather a star called Gliese 581. Stars like Gliese 581 do have atmospheres consisting of gases like hydrogen and helium. If you're referring to potential exoplanets orbiting Gliese 581, they may have atmospheres depending on their size, distance from the star, and other factors.
Gliese 581 is located approximately 20.3 light years away from the Sun.
Gliese 581 g was discovered on September 29, 2010.
Gliese is a new planet discovered in April 27, 2007 but told in 2010.
3-6. The 3 planet model would have gliese 581 b too hot, gliese 581 c in the habitable zone, and gliese 581 d too cold. The 6 planet model would have gliese 581 e, b, and c too hot, gliese 581 g and d in the habitable zone, and gliese 581 f too cold.

Gliese 581 c is an exoplanet that lies within the habitable zone of its star. It is believed to have a thick atmosphere, likely composed of carbon dioxide or water vapor, which could contribute to a greenhouse effect on the planet. However, without direct observations, the exact composition and characteristics of its atmosphere remain uncertain.
Planets are simply named by adding a letter to the host star name. The first planet found orbiting GJ 581 is called GJ 581 b (where A corresponds to the star). The 2nd discovered planet is GJ 581 c, and so on.

Gliese 581 IS the system, D is the planet.
No. At 20.5 light years from Earth, and it only having been discovered, AND Terrans not having developed extra-light speed craft or wormhole technology, it would not be possible for anyone to have arrived at Gliese 581 G yet.
