Video: NASA discovery of earthlike planet Kepler 452B & more
By now you've surely heard the news. NASA has announced the discovery of a new earth like exoplanet! I made a video answering some simple questions about it and what you can expect
The first exoplanet orbiting another star like our sun was discovered in 1995. Exoplanets, especially small Earth-size worlds, belonged within the realm of science fiction just 21 years ago. Today, and thousands of discoveries later, astronomers are on the cusp of finding something people have dreamed about for thousands of years -- another Earth.
