Great Discovery from NASA : Twins of our solar system are found

in #culturevulture7 years ago (edited)

The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), like the same solar system, has found a new system that also houses eight planets. The orbiting system of the star called Kepler-90 is the most planetary system ever discovered, apart from the solar system.

Kepler-90 is a little warmer and slightly larger than the Sun. Seven of the planets around him had previously been discovered by astronomers.

According to BBC , the discovery of an eighth planet revealed that the Kepler-90 solar system had eight planets, like the system in which our same world was found.

The newly discovered planetary experts say it's small and rocky.

First star with the same number of planets as the solar system

The Kepler-90 system is the most similar to the system we have in our world until now.

"With this discovery, Kepler-90 has become the first star to have the same number of planets as our solar system," says Christopher Shallue, who works as a software specialist on Google and contributes to the discovery.

Google software experts have made this discovery with the help of a kind of artificial intelligence that they call "learning by machine" that allows them to find planets that have been overlooked in the past.

The discovery was based on observations of the Kepler Space Telescope. The system around the star at 2,255 light-years from Earth is very similar to ours in terms of the number and arrangement of the planets.

"The Kepler-90 system is like a mini version of our solar system," says Andrew Venderburg, an associate professor at the University of Texas, who says there are smaller, larger planets inside, but everything is happening in a smaller area.

To put it in a comparison, the distance of the planet in the outermost orbit of Kepler-90 to the sun is equal to the Earth's distance to the Sun.

Since Kepler-90's last discovered planet, the eighth planet (Kepler-90i) is more or less an internal orbit, it is supposed to complete the orange around its own sun every 14.5 days and reach a temperature of 425 centigrade on its surface.

With the intelligence software used to find this planet, another planet called Kepler 80g was discovered in the same dimensions as the Earth that revolved around another star. In addition, astronomers have discovered about 3 thousand 500 new stars rotating around other suns in the last 20-30 years.

Doesn't it blow your mind thinking about all the cultures that could exist on these planets.

That's quite insane!
