I’m a large fan of the GJ1061 system. Planet “c” orbits in the inner edge of the habitable zone. It has a mass of 1.75X that of the Earth, and 1.2X its radius. It receives more starlight than the Earth, though, and is thus likely to be similar to Venus.

Planet “d” orbits farther out. It has 1.68X the mass of Earth and likely has 1.2X its radius. It receives a bit over half the starlight that Earth does, meaning that it is pretty cold. With an oxygen atmosphere, the average surface temperature is -23 degrees Celsius, or -10 degrees Fahrenheit.

GJ 1061 (the star) is a red dwarf, but it doesn’t have massive flares like Proxima, TRAPPIST, and Ross 128.
