NASA’s Kepler space telescope has been floating in space since early 2009, and it’s already outlived its planned mission window by a handful of years, but that’s not stopping it from continuing to find some seriously awesome objects outside of our Solar System. The team that runs the ...
The massive find promises to help scientists better understand how all rocky bodies—including our own planet—came to be.
” says Simon Bentzen, a Danish citizen scientist who has volunteered with Planet Hunters TESS since 2018. “I’m very happy that I helped find the new system. I hope that the new planets can help contribute to our understanding of planet formation and help answer ...

NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency plan to launch (发射) the James Webb space telescope in 2021. The European Space Agency's PLATO space telescope, scheduled to launch in 2026, will focus on finding Earth-like planets orbiting Sun-like stars. (1) What makes ...
Planet hunters are significantly closer to their goal of finding an "Earth twin" with the discovery of two planets similar in size to our own, astronomers with NASA's Kepler mission announced today.The planets, described at a NASA press conference, orbit a sun that's cooler than ours but ...
