Search for alien planets are thought to have a particle of life continue to be done by astronomers. Found an alien planet to 500. This milestone occurred less than 20 years after the first planets discovered outside our solar system. This data is compiled by experts astrobiologi Jean Schneider of the Paris-Meudon Observatory. Planet aliens to 500 are reported along with some other object discovery. Planet in space was to be one of four objects in the solar system found, based on Schneider’s list. This discovery was found planet after HIP 13044 b astronomers claimed aliens from another galaxy.
All of these newly discovered planets smaller than Jupiter, about 15 to 50% weight of Jupiter and has a distance with the Earth about 58 light years to 196 years light.
Astronomers are optimistic about finding another planet. “In some way, the planet to 500 just a marker,” said Jon Jenkins from the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), which is the Kepler mission to study leader.
According to him the more interesting is to see the process of discovery that changed over time. Variants have been discovered will continue to grow, said Jenkins again.
Kepler is now identified more than 700 potential stars into planets outside the solar system, depending on the observation and further confirmation. Some alien stars sometimes covering more than one planet. Therefore, it is estimated will not be more than 20 years to find planets outside the solar system to 1,000.
