Astronomers have found a twin of the sun

A small team of scientists experts in the field of astronomical research, Director and head, which was made by Ivan Ramirez from the Institute of the U.S. state of Texas, for the first time in history, recorded in outer space, similar in structure to the sun. Recall that before, nor anything like one group of scientists in the field of astronomical research, not opened and not have achieved this success.

After extensive observations, scientists have calculated a star formed from clouds of gas and dust, identical to the one from which was formed the sun. So, the twin of the sun located at a distance of a hundred light-years from planet earth and yet is called HD162826 given to him according to the telescope the code.

Note that the size of these two stars have exactly the same, although discovered twin brother of the sun has a chemical heavier by as much as fifteen percent.

In the constellation of Carina discovered a new exoplanet the Result of long observations provided by the French astronomers for several months, the image of extrasolar planets-giant, obtained by means of telescope VLT. The easiest of ekzoplaneta was seen in the southern hemisphere sky in the constellation Carina. Watching for several months in the constellation of Carina, astronomers have discovered at the distance of 293 light-years is relatively young blue star. The mass of the star, identified as HD 95086, is slightly more than the mass of the Sun was formed about 10-17 million years ago.

40 light years separate the Earth and potentially habitable planetweb attracted the attention of scientists — HD 40307 — the sixth planet, because it was almost in the middle of the "field of life" near its sun. "Sphere of life" the researchers call the zone around the star where on the plane of the planet, resembling the Earth is likely to have liquid water. Not far away from HD 40307 astronomers have discovered a planet that is potentially suitable for living, located in 42 years from our planet. The first such facility outside the system of the Sun Baby from Pakistan doctors successfully remove four legs, the Doctors conducted a successful operation to remove four extra limbs boy born with six legs in Pakistan, according to the publication the Daily Mail. Medical experts suggest that the cause of the development of the additional limbs of the baby to the city of Karachi has become a phenomenon of the twin-parasite, when the fetus of one twin absorbs the other, less developed. A group of five doctors fought for the boy's life at the National Institute of Child Health (NICH) in Karachi.
