Kepler Telescope discovered five new worlds
Kepler space telescope (Kepler), which hunts for Earth-like planets, achieved his first success, he opened five new worlds outside our solar system.
Planets found space telescope, much larger than Earth and are comparable in size to Jupiter and Neptune, but they are too hot to on their surface could harbor life.
The first planet, named «Kepler 4b», has a similar size and density to Neptune, with a diameter greater than four times the diameter of the Earth. The other four planets are named, respectively, 5b, 6b, 7b, 8b, - gas giants similar in size to Jupiter, and also very like planet «Kepler 4b», their orbit is very close to the stars and the red-hot surface.
The main mission of the Kepler telescope is the answer to the question: "Is humanity only in the universe?"
