Scientists find more than 700 suspected new planets -- including 140 similar in size to Earth -- in 6 weeks using new observatory

[웃 910]

Praise God. 700 new planets just popped up in the last 6 weeks. Up to 140 of them are similar in size to our planet. The sun is so large that you can fit ONE MILLION earth's (please try to digest what that means) onto the area of the sun. Yet the sun is a SMALL STAR in our galaxy!!!

Our galaxy which contains the sun and another 100,000,000,000 (100 billion) stars is so great. Remember, the largest star in our galaxy is approximately 1500 times larger than our sun!!! Wow that means the largest star can contain one million earths, 1500 times over. That is big. But it is only 1 star among 100 billion....

So how many galaxies are there? There are 100 to 200 billion galaxies (highest estimate 500 billion galaxies), each containing hundreds of billions of stars.....

Praise God who gives us the great opportunity to worship him in order to go to Heaven when we die (or He lights us on fire and we burn for eternity if we do not believe). We have been put on this earth to praise Allah and follow the teachings of the Quar'an. AMEN!

NASA's Deep Space Camera Locates Host of 'Earths'

Scientists celebrated Sunday after finding more than 700 suspected new planets -- including up to 140 similar in size to Earth -- in just six weeks of using a powerful new space observatory.

Early results from NASA’s Kepler Mission, a small satellite observing deep space, suggested planets like Earth were far more common than previously thought.

Past discoveries suggested most planets outside our solar system were gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn -- but the new evidence tipped the balance in favor of solid worlds.

Astronomers said the discovery meant the chances of eventually finding truly Earth-like planets capable of sustaining life rose sharply.

NASA so far formally announced only five new exoplanets -- those outside our solar system -- from the mission because its scientists were still analyzing Kepler’s finds to confirm they are actually planets.

“The figures suggest our galaxy, the Milky Way [which has more than 100 billion stars] will contain 100 million habitable planets, and soon we will be identifying the first of them,” said Dimitar Sasselov, professor of astronomy at Harvard University and a scientist on the Kepler Mission. "There is a lot more work we need to do with this, but the statistical result is loud and clear, and it is that planets like our own Earth are out there."

Can't wait until we find alien life that's much smarter than we are. Proves that the "God" we know is BS

Out of curiosity, if this intelligent life was to visit earth, do yo think they would be proud of libertarians [or even yank libs]? Proud of the jungle-like ideals of only caring about yourself, with a sole focus of money and personal wealth. Does that sound intelligent to you? Hint: Most intelligent people in the world are not the wealthiest.
