We report results of initial work done on selected candidate Cepheids to beobserved with the Kepler space telescope. Prior to the launch 40 candidateswere selected from previous surveys and databases. The analysis of the first322 days of Kepler photometry, and recent ground-based follow-up ...
As noted above, the spacecraft orbits the sun, not Earth, and is therefore beyond the reach of a servicing mission. Flashback: The Launch of NASA's Kepler Space Telescope 7 Ways to Discover Alien Planets Latest News About Alien Planets Mike Wall's book about the search for alien life...

Planet hunter Plato gets its eyes | Space photo of the day for May 7, 2025 Thetelescope's oval-shaped dust cover, measuring 1.7 meters by 1.3 meters (67inches by 52 inches), protected the photometer from contamination before andafter launch. The dust cover also blocked stray light from en...
8.A NASA spacecraft called Kepler has found thousands of exoplanets this way. 美国航局一艘名为开普勒的宙飞船以这种方式发现了数千颗系外行。 「NASA微课堂」 9.It began in 2009 with the launch of NASA's Kepler mission. 故事开始于 2009 , NASA 启动了开普勒计划。 「TED演讲(音频版) 20164月合集...
The spacecraft orbits the sun at about the same distance as Earth. Five years since its launch, Kepler is now located about 50 million miles from Earth. Keeping Kepler balanced means it must be pointed in the ecliptic plane, or the plane where all the solar system's planets orbit the sun...
We present spectroscopy for seven systems, four of which were newly discovered since launch. All of the stars presented herein have been observed by, or are currently being observed by, the Kepler space telescope. Three historic systems and one new candidate could not be detected at their sky ...
Since the 2009 launch of NASA's Kepler telescope, scientists have identified thousands of planets outside our solar system, which are called exoplanets. Distant Moons May Harbor Life Since the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Kepler telescope was launched in 2009, scientists ha...
Operations started about a month after Kepler’s March 6, 2009, launch. One of the four reaction wheels used to point the spacecraft failed in 2012, but the other three were able to keep Kepler observing its field of view. Data collection ended in May 2013 when another wheel failed. Howe...
