NASA spots scores of potentially livable worlds
| Quote | An orbiting NASA telescope is finding whole new worlds of possibilities in the search for alien life, spotting more than 50 potential planets that appear to be in the habitable zone.
In just a year of peering out at a small slice of the galaxy, the Kepler telescope has discovered 1,235 possible planets outside our solar system. Amazingly, 54 of them are seemingly in the zone that could be hospitable to life — that is, not too hot or too cold, Kepler chief scientist William Borucki said. |
54 planets in the habitable zone, and 9 of them are approximately Earth-sized.
Is that IDiot astronomer Guillermo Gonzalez you worship going to write a sequel, i.e. "The 54 Privileged Planets" ?

Bumped for JoeTard, who suddenly has gone mighty quiet on the issue.  |
Just because there are planets in the habitable zone does not mean they are habitable. |
But JoeTard, the major theme of Gonzalez' brain fart was that Earth is special because it's in the "Goldilocks" zone. It's "privileged." But now we know dozens more in the same "privileged" zone, and many of them are Earth sized.
Guess we're not as special as we thought. Except you Joetard. You're thooper-dooper special.
