Scientists using advanced telescopes has been trying to find Earth-like planets, there are still 4,661 candidate planets are still in the state.
According to media reports, recently, NASA astronomers announced the discovery of another "Earth", the upcoming press conference will announce the details of the results, which is another Kepler telescope launched since 2009 major discovery. Currently Fengyun mysterious planet in some cases is still not known outside, astronomers announced the discovery of possible outcomes Earth-like planets in the conference, some critics pointed out, there could be water on the planet. Existing data show that the planet search, exoplanets have been identified more than 1,000 pieces, the basic observation from Kepler telescope, but the telescope because the failure has turned to other tasks.
The discovery of Earth-like planets around a star may be in the habitable band, which means that the surface of the planet is expected to liquid water, which is now scientists have been looking for the planet's surface environment. Since 1995, the first one exoplanet was discovered in 21 years, scientists have observations of Earth-like planets has not been much progress before the exoplanet was discovered extrasolar planets similar to Earth in size science fiction category. Now, scientists using advanced telescopes has been trying to find Earth-like planets, there are still 4661 candidate planets are still in the state, there is no further confirmation.
Earth-like planet has Earth-like conditions, such as more similar volume, mass, surface environment and, therefore, there is extraterrestrial life may exist. While extraterrestrial life may have diversity, for example, can survive in harsh environments, but we know this planet Earth is able to evolve life, as long as the search for such a planet Earth in the universe is more easy to find extraterrestrial life now. Last year, astronomers announced the discovery of the first to bring live around stars like planets so far have found eight such planets.
A recent study shows that there may be billions of stars in the Milky Way livable planet, with many suggesting that the planet can support life in the Milky Way. In January this year, NASA announced the discovery of two new planets that Kepler -438b, etc., and the volume of the Earth almost. In July this year, scientists found five planets Kepler -444 system, they are close to the size of Earth. As more and more Earth-like planets have been discovered in the near future, we hope to find planets similar to the Earth's environment even more.
