I used a combination of sources to gather this information, including historical records, official websites of museums and libraries, and general knowledge databases. Some specific sources include:

  1. The official websites of the Australian National Maritime Museum (www.anmm.gov.au), the State Library of New South Wales (www.sl.nsw.gov.au), and the Museum of Sydney (www.museumofsydney.com.au).
  2. The Australian Government's Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, and Communications website (www.infrastructure.gov.au) for information on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
  3. The Sydney Opera House official website (www.sydneyoperahouse.com) for details about the venue.
  4. General knowledge databases and historical archives for specific dates and events.

It's essential to note that while I tried to provide accurate information, some details might be subject to variations or inconsistencies in historical records. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it's always best to consult primary sources or refer to expert historians.

Astronomers believe that Kepler-438b might have liquid water on its surface due to several factors. First, its size suggests that it could have a solid surface and not be a gas giant like some other exoplanets. Second, its orbit within the habitable zone of its star means that the planet's surface temperature could be within a range where water could exist in a liquid state. Third, the star it orbits, Kepler-438, is slightly cooler and smaller than the Sun, which may result in a more stable climate on the exoplanet. However, these are just indications, and direct confirmation of liquid water or the presence of life requires further study and observation.

The closest known Earth-like exoplanet, Kepler-438b, is located in the habitable zone of its star, which is around 470 light-years away from our solar system. It's approximately 12% larger than Earth, and astronomers believe it could have liquid water on its surface. However, more research is needed to determine if it's truly Earth-like and if it has a habitable atmosphere.

The closest Earth-like planet to Earth is Venus. It's located in our own solar system and shares many similarities with Earth, such as a comparable size and mass. However, its atmosphere is much denser and consists mostly of carbon dioxide, making it an inhospitable environment for life as we know it.
