Kepler-22b is about 620 light years or about 3.6 quadrillion miles away. It works out to the same whether you use Pluto or Earth as a reference point, as our distance to Pluto is tiny compared with our distance to Kepler-22b.
No. Kepler-22b is in another solar system about 620 light years away.
Kepler-22b was given its the designation Kepler as it is one of many planets discovered by the Kepler observatory. The 22b refers to it being the innermost (and only known) planet orbiting the star Kepler-22.
Some evidence suggests Kepler-22b may have at least one moon, but it is not confirmed.
Kepler 22b was not discovered by an individual, but by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope in December 2011. The telescope detected the planet as part of the Kepler mission's search for exoplanets within the habitable zone of their stars.

kepler 22b is the same size as saturn and saturn is 95 time bigger then earth
Kepler-22b orbits a star called Kepler-22, which is located about 600 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus. Kepler-22 is a G-type star similar to our Sun, but slightly cooler and smaller.
No. Kepler-22b is in another solar system about 620 light years away.
Probably not. Very little is known about Kepler-22b. We know that it orbits in its star's habitable zone, but we do not know its composition, mass, or temperature. Chances are it would not be suitable for humans. Even then, Kepler 22b is about 600 light years away. Much to far for us to travel with current technology, if interstellar travel will ever be possible.

No. Kepler-22b is between the size of Earth and Neptune.

Kepler-22b is smaller than Jupiter. Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, while Kepler-22b is an exoplanet located outside of our solar system and is estimated to be approximately 2.4 times the size of Earth.
Gliese 581g is an exoplanet orbiting the star Gliese 581, while Kepler-22b is an exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-22. Gliese 581g is located about 20 light-years from Earth in the constellation Libra, while Kepler-22b is located about 600 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. Additionally, Gliese 581g is a controversial discovery and its existence is still debated, while Kepler-22b is a confirmed exoplanet.
