a minority that's still upset. |
I think there's a really good chance that this is an historic photo, |
It may very well be that solar systems like our own are probably not rare in the galaxy. They may actually be a very common case. |
It really is a major milestone, |
It's much closer to our solar system than anything we've found so far. |
M dwarf stars dominate the stellar population in the solar neighborhood, and so are attractive targets for searching for habitable planets. The models show that gas-giant planets are indeed likely to form?at distances sufficiently large enough to permit the later formation of habitable, terrestrial planets. |
Normally when you think of flea markets, you think of sweat socks and T-shirts. We're looking at young designers, art, photography, nothing mass-produced. We want to be cutting edge and unique. |
Now we have our first genuine detection of light from a planet around a solar-like star, |
There are a whole bunch of things people want to use the 'p-word' for, so we have to be careful. |
This really is an exciting discovery. I'm still somewhat stunned they have such good data. |
We couldn't come up with a definition of planets in splendid isolation, |
