You all heard about "Earth 2.0." Now read an exclusive behind-the-scenes feature on the most Earth-like exoplanet found so far - and what it means for future discoveries.
This is so amazing! As I believe there is no doubt about life in a multitude of places in the Universe. I only hope I would live long enough to see any life form at all.
Are you sure you want to live so long? :-)
Right to say that "The Kepler mission has been a labour of love, and a fight against the odds, for more than 20 years."
The quest to discover Earth’s bigger, older cousin was a fight against the odds for the Kepler mission.
"Earth 2.0." Perhaps this is our future ...
By Kepler's own Jon Jenkins!
Draw conclusions. Go further...
