Before you start packing, keep in mind that you will need cold weather gear. Hd 137010 B is Earth-like in the sense that Antarctica is Earth-like. Pat Brennan of NASA says that this world lies at the outer edge of the habitable zone of the star that it orbits. It's slightly larger than Earth, so perhaps the gravity is bearable.
But it's also chilly. That said, it's possible that Hd 137010 B has liquid water if it has a suitable atmosphere.
Proposal: to encourage immigration to this new frozen world, we need a name more appealing than Hd 137010 B. Perhaps "Greenland."
