The Kepler Space Telescope Found 100 New Exoplanets

Will we find extraterrestrials on one of these?

Kepler 452-b is the most famous exoplanet and it has been announced that they have found more of them.  There has been somewhat of a debate amongst astronomers and space fans alike.  Some say that exoplanets offer the greatest chance for finding extraterrestrials.  Others think the recent restarting of the S.E.T.I.  program is where they should focus.  Whatever camp you are in, this will give us a lot to study:

Kepler has now discovered more than 100 confirmed alien planets during its second-chance K2 mission, researchers announced on January 5th.

The $600 million Kepler mission launched in March 2009, tasked with determining how commonly Earth-like planets occur throughout the Milky Way galaxy. Kepler has been incredibly successful, finding more than 1,000 alien worlds to date, more than half of all exoplanets ever discovered.

Let’s find out more and check out a video showing some of these potential alien worlds on page 2

    Nope, agreed… Small minded people couldnt handle it. A person is smart people are dumb. Society as a whole; afraid of the unknown. But then once its known they want to disengage themselves from the trueth and pretend it aighnt true.
