Is there only one sun in this world? One world and one living world! People have been searching for the answer for a long time. Recently Kepler-385 further fueled that mystery. NASA’s retired space telescope Kepler reported on an alien world.
In that world too there is a ‘Sun’, around which seven planets revolve. But these planets are much hotter than the inhabitants of the solar system. After Kepler, this alien world is named Kepler-385. This research paper has been published in the science magazine called ‘The Journal of Planetary Science’.
Initially, Kepler’s mission ended in 2013. But even after that he continued to work. Kepler worked until 2018. This and the second chapter of the campaign were called ‘K2’. Data from the Kepler space probe is still being analyzed. And new information is emerging. This telescope has discovered numerous planets inhabiting the Milky Way Galaxy. The planets outnumber the stars.
According to NASA scientists, Kepler has found 4400 planets so far. 700 of these are multi-planet systems. But Kepler rarely found families with six or more planets in the same family. “Scientists are creating a catalog of planets found by Kepler,” said Jacques Lissauer, a scientist at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley, California. Their character, characteristics… all these are mentioned in it. At this time
The name of Kepler-385 was added to that list.He reports that Kepler-385 has a Sun-like star at its center. But it is 10 percent bigger than the Sun. 5 percent hotter. The planets closest to the star are only slightly larger than the two Earths. rocky ground A thin air layer may also exist. The rest of the planets are quite large. Each has a radius twice that of the Earth. According to scientists, these planets have a thick atmosphere.
