Yesterday I finished the day with the announcement of the discovery of the first Earth-like exoplanet detected by the Kepler space telescope. Kepler has the name of 10-by is a planetary body mass of 4.45 Earth radius is 1.4 times that of our planet and is located at 560 light years away. This discovery was announced at 217 American Astronomical Society Meeting in Seattle.

According to Douglas, a NASA scientist who has participated in the discovery, "Kepler's discovery of 10-b is a milestone in the search for Earth's sister planets." I am not entirely agree with him, and who is brother-in size rather older brother, but not in distance to their parent star as it is extremely close to, about 20 times closer than Mercury is from our Sun , so the more you brother, I would call "cousin." However, I believe that this discovery represents an important point in the detection of Earth-like exoplanets, as he looks to be open season on the discovery of these bodies exoplanetary.

Because of the distance to its parent star, the exoplanet is outside what we know as the occupied zone, but this gives us the only thing on this planet is that there is no liquid water due to high temperature, so there is no life as we know it on Earth.

Continuing the theme of life beyond Earth, the journal Philosophical Transactions , published by the Royal Society , puts the fuss, and never better, noting that the UN should prepare an action plan for a possible contact with an extraterrestrial civilization, and that it is possible to be a "hostile encounter."

Simon Conway Morris, University of Cambridge, said with a sentence full of sensationalism peliculera and saying "we must be prepared for the worst", and also Morris ventures to say that these beings, as if they had evidence of them, "will very similar to us. "

Kepler's discovery of 10-b is a great find, I hope to be made public in February found further confirmation for the Kepler space telescope. With respect to the Philosophical Transactions published by , texts like these make you lose the prestigious British Royal Society and a company of this caliber should not enter into thematic focus toward sensationalism, sensationalism and the desire to draw attention to data that do not exist. ---
