NASA: Distant Planets Ideal for Life Found


Alien Planets.JPEG


NASA's planet-hunting telescope has discovered two planets that seem like ideal places for some sort of life to flourish. They are just the right size and in just the right place near their star.

The distant duo are the best candidates for habitable planets that astronomers have found so far, said William Borucki, the chief scientist for NASA's Kepler telescope.

The discoveries, published online Thursday in the journal Science, mark a milestone in the search for planets where life could exist.

  1. The origin of the Planets.

    Planets are nothing more than waste material emitted by the Sun. When looking at the planetary data of how far each orbiting body is from the Sun an exponential curve is produced. This indicates the planets have been accelerating away from the center of the solar system.

    Sun spot that is always there, the next planet to emerge from the upper strata of the Sun. Planet K, is a bit of a mystery and the initial forces which deliver the body from the mass of the Sun are still unknown.

    So how can we tell the planets have been traveling away from the sun and picking up speed. https://sites.google.com/site/planetemissiontheory/

    There are other indications too. For instance the orbit of each planet is concentric. M and V are tidy with no deviation from the circular path. But each planetary body is more and more off the circular orbit and becomes elliptic to the point of no return.

    Back to the initial forces to explain how this occurs. I considered big bangs and so on. But the theory which I feel fits is SHM. Picture a wave out at sea it rise then brakes, why? Inter galactic forces like gravity from the moon. So the Sun is harmonized with the forces of other Suns. A tidal like event on the molten liquid matter. This is a feasible origin for the initial forces which form a spinning ball of molten Planet. And there in another point that the first two planets are more molten. They have not yet cold to form a crust as they are fresh from the fire. And the the permanent sunspot is white with heat.
