I'm not sure if any, or how many, of the ones we've discovered so far, seem likely to have ideal properties for current-human style habitation, so, maybe the answer is that none of them seem likely to be good candidates relative to current-style humanity (although, even if that was the case, you could still rank them from like medium-bad to ultra-bad or what have you, I guess).
But yea, I guess I am curious which specific exoplanets that we've discovered so far seem the most intriguing from a likelihood-of-habitability-for-humans standpoint, if ranked against each other.
(And, yea I know the data we have on them is pretty limited, so, we'd still be just making educated-guesses about a lot of aspects of them, but, still, from a probabilistic standpoint, some of them would have higher probability levels than others, right? So, one could still rank them, even in that sense, I'd think).
When we think of technological advancement, we see huge changes in just 10 or 20 year timeframes. Imagine if we had an extra 7 billion years to advance our technology. There must be other 'things' out there either studying us, observing us, or just passing us by and not really giving us any thought, like when you walk past an ant or a bacteria...
Astronomers have discovered a potentially habitable exoplanet around Teegarden's Star.
Teegarden is an old red dwarf star 12 light-years away in the Aries constellation.
The exoplanet found, called Teegarden b, has a minimum mass almost identical to Earth.
It orbits within the star's habitable zone.
And it has a 60% chance of having a temperate surface environment.
Surface temperature should be closer to 28°C assuming a similar terrestrial atmosphere.
Teegarden b is the exoplanet with the highest Earth Similarity Index discovered so far: 95%.
This means that it has the closest mass and insolation to terrestrial values.

I'm doing a project on the Kepler planets and while going through some information about Kepler 186f, it was mentioned that it had a radius of 1.11, making it within the range of being potentially habitable. I want to know why this is a must. Thanks for your time!
