Hmm, well that isn't true. It is literally in your interest, since you are getting fame from the claim

fame and funding
The chances of life being on this planet are close to nil. The star it circles is a red dwarf and it circles an orbit of only 4 days in order to be in the "habitable" zone of such a dim star. Problem, any planet that orbits that close to it's parent star is also going to be tidally locked, one side will always face that star and the back side will be in permanent darkness. All of the planets water will freeze out on the darkside rendering life as we know it impossible because at present we know of absolutely zero species that doesn't depend upon liquid water.
