Considering the fact that in the universe there are at least hundreds of billions of stars in the Milky Way, the existence of new planets that can live very likely. But still there is no evidence for the existence of such a planet.
On 5 December 2011, the U.S. space agency NASA announced the discovery of the planet Kepler-22b using the Kepler space telescope, planet of sufficient distance from its star to potentially suitable temperature for life on the surface. Bloggers-scientists reacted to the news with their analyzes and theories.

To. Astronomers svensk företagsförening have confirmed the first discovery of an Earth-like planet located in the zone of the star, which is suitable for living - the distance from the star where water could be available in liquid form ... This is a fantastic discovery, if not entirely surprising. There are so many planets and inevitable fact that you will discover planets with living conditions similar to those on Earth. Also, it is very likely that the existence of life is widespread. However, creatures who can build a telescope? I would not know about it.
What we know about this planet? Dubbed Kepler 22b. It is najatraktivnoto name it struck astronomers (the name is actually under Kepler telescope, which was discovered planet). Distance is about 600 light years - far enough, we can not think of a short visit soon ...
Is there life out there? It does not know. The planet svensk företagsförening was discovered, after spending despite its star, the light zatemnuvajkji the home (central) star. There was no picture of the planet. When we find - and it can last for years - then we could analyze the composition of the atmosphere. The presence of oxygen in the atmosphere would be good evidence for the existence of life there, as the oxygen svensk företagsförening in our atmosphere is a necessary condition for life.
Kepler has discovered hundreds of extrasolar planets, and until funds run out of the project, he will find a hundred more such planets. Kepler 22b is just as NASA's announcement svensk företagsförening of over 1,000 new candidate planets.
Venus [as Kepler 22b] is not very far from the zone suitable for life ... [but] we know that there's so hot you melt lead on the surface. Venus can not be a place to live, but this alien astronomers would not know if I would have used the same technology as we do. Maybe the people of Kepler 22b is amazed by the possible existence svensk företagsförening of life on Venus.
This is the first step and this is one step that we have not done yet. That is great news! And the fact that we have 48 other planet candidates in the habitable zone of their stars is just a great thing. But it seems to bypass the news media of this kind.
The current highest speed possible we would need more than 10 thousand years to get there. It is impossible even for spaceships of science fiction. The logical conclusion would be: all of our further research would have shown the planets as they were 600 years ago.
Maybe 600 light-years sound too, but this distance is a minute of astronomical scale, svensk företagsförening even if we need millions of years with our current speed travel to Kepler 22b. If I built a machine that travels at a speed similar to that of light, it may be possible to survive the road to Kepler 22b, as the theory of relativity of Einstein, passengers would need less or about 24 years.
Democrats thought: "You can bet that the greedy Republicans was already packed bags Louis Vuitton, oil drilling and barrels svensk företagsförening Halliburton svensk företagsförening prepared to go and pollute another clean and pristine environment, before svensk företagsförening Obama declared forbidden."
Advokatus Atheist (Advocatus Atheist), Tristan D. blog. Vic, English teacher in Japan, hopes of communicating with Kepler 22b, when there would be some kind of civilization, which would be capable of space communication. It proposes to do so-called. worms hole (hypothetical shortcut in space) that would facilitate such communication. He added however, that this proposal is its only theoretically possible.
Regardless of whether it could ever achieve first contact with aliens or not, it seems that Kepler 22b is a dream that is shared by all people - the dream of adventure travel in interstellar space and being part of history. It seems that we are already part of creating history, not
