This will stop "the flow of exoplanets" and focus on the discovery of a truly habitable world.
NASA is developing the next generation of telescopes, capable of detecting the conditions of exoplanets for the formation of life. The devices of the future will be able to analyze the atmosphere of the planet by comparing it to the Earth.
This writes the Chronicle.info with reference to rambler.ru.
An important factor in the search for an extraterrestrial life is the nature of their parent stars studied as exoplanets. The mass, size and age of light determine the extent of the habitable zone – the region where temperatures allow water to remain liquid.
The agency already has information on the considerable number of planets in the galaxy of the Milky Way that could potentially be suitable for the emergence of life. However, for a more precise analysis, it is necessary to have more knowledge about the correlation between the size of the planet and its composition.
This task, in particular, is assigned to a new expanded mission of the Kepler telescope, which bears the provisional title of K2. This will stop "the flow of exoplanets" and search for a truly habitable world, writes The Daily Mail.
Chandra returned to work after an accident that left her asleep for two weeks. The cause of the failure has a problem with one of the gyroscopes of the device.
