Kepler-442b, 1,100 light-years away, is 33 percent bigger than Earth and orbits its star once every 112 days. Both Kepler-438b and Kepler-442b orbit stars smaller and cooler than our Sun, making the habitable zone closer to their parent star, in the direction of the constellation Lyra....
The new planets found by Kepler compared to the Earth (Image: NASA) The two Earthlike planets are Kepler-438b, which is 475 light years away, 12 percent larger than the Earth, and circles its star in 35.2 days; and Kepler-442b, which is 1,100 light years away, 33 percent bigger, a...
we are almost sure that this work dates to the Summer of 1689 (see Duchesneau1998). I mention here the references to some other passages of Leibniz, where he claimed: (a) to be the discoverer of thevelocitas circulandiin thecirculatio harmonica; (b) by means ofcirculatio harmonica...
12 percent larger than the Earth, and circles its star in 35.2 days; and Kepler-442b, which is 1,100 light years away, 33 percent bigger, and has a "year" of 112 days. Though their shorter years indicate they are closer to their stars than the Earth, this still puts them in the ...
