Rocky planet found outside Solar System

The planet orbits the star Gliese 876, which is just 15 light years from our own Solar System and is already known to have two Jupiter-sized planets. Like most other exoplanet discoveries, the astronomers found it by detecting the way Gliese 876 wobbles as the planets orbit the star.
