Watch this and other space videos at SpaceRip.com From EsoCast in 1080p, comes the announcement of a rash of new planet discoveries. Astronomers using ESO's leading exoplanet hunter HARPS have today announced more than fifty newly discovered planets around other stars. Among these are many rocky planets not much heavier than the Earth. One of them in particular orbits within the habitable zone around its star. Among the new planets just announced by scientists, sixteen are super-Earths - rocky planets up to ten times as massive as Earth. This is the largest number of such planets ever announced at one time. A planet in orbit causes its star to regularly move backwards and forwards as seen from Earth. This creates a tiny shift of the star's spectrum that can be measured with an extremely sensitive spectrograph such as HARPS. In their quest to find a rocky planet that could harbor life, astronomers are now pushing HARPS even further. They have selected ten well-studied nearby stars similar to our Sun. Earlier observations showed that these were ideal stars to examine for even less massive planets. After two years of work, the team has found five light super-Earths around three of the stars. These planets are very good candidates for future observations looking for evidence of life. One of the newly found planets, named HD 85512 b, orbits inside the habitable zone. This is the narrow area around a star where water can exist in liquid form. Astronomers estimate that liquid <b>...</b>

Since the first planet orbiting a Sun-like star was discovered in 1995, thousands of candidates have been. But how many are for sure? In this episode of Q&BA, I talk about the methods used to find exoplanets, and just how many we've found. [The aspect ratio is a bit messed up. I've figured out the problem, but can't fix it here. I'll have it worked out in the next video.]

SETI Talks archive: seti.org Science fiction portrays our Milky Way Galaxy as filled with habitable planets populated by advanced civilizations engaged in interstellar trade and conflict. Back in our real universe, Earth-like planets and alien life have proved elusive. Has science fiction led us astray? NASA has launched a space-borne telescope, Kepler, dedicated to discovering the first Earth-like worlds around other stars. The first results are startling and profound. How common are worlds that are suitable for life? What properties make a planet livable? Can we estimate the occurrence of life in the universe, especially intelligent life? New telescopic and biological observations are providing the first answers to these questions. And new techniques are emerging to provide those answers.

SETI Talks archive: seti.org For centuries people have wondered, "Are we alone?" With hundreds of planets now known to orbit other stars, we are finally able to begin answering the ancient questions, "Do other Earths exist? Are they common? Do any have signs of life? NASA's Kepler space telescope will soon tell us the statistical numbers of Earth-size planets orbiting sun-size stars. Beyond Kepler is the search for potentially habitable worlds around nearby, sun-like stars. Professor Seager will discuss how astrobiology and space engineering research will come together to enable us to discover and identify other Earth-like worlds.

Watch this and other space videos at SpaceRip.com From the Spitzer Science Center. While astronomers have identified over 500 planets around other stars, they're all too small and distant to fill even a single pixel in our most powerful telescopes. That's why science must rely on art to help us imagine these strange new worlds. From Spitzer Space Telescope. Even without pictures of these exoplanets, astronomers have learned many things that can be illustrated in artwork. For instance, measurements of the temperatures of many "Hot Jupiters," massive worlds orbiting very close to their stars, hint that their atmospheres may be as dark as soot, glowing only from their own heat. While "Hot Jupiters" would be relatively dark in visible light, compared to their stars, their brightness is proportionally much greater in the infrared. Illustrating this dramatic contrast change helps explain why the infrared eye of NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope plays a key role in studying exoplanets. As our understanding evolves, so must the artwork. Astronomers found a blazing hot spot on the exoplanet Upsilon Andromedae b that at first, appeared to face towards its star. More data has revealed that the hottest area is actually strangely rotated almost 90 degrees away, near the day terminator. WASP 12b is as hot as the filament in a light bulb, and would be blazing bright to our eyes. Most interestingly, if it proves to have a strongly elliptical orbit, as first thought, calculations show it <b>...</b>

Guests: Dimitar Sasselov, Ben Goertzel Exoplanets: In the first half of Wednesday's show, Professor of Astronomy at Harvard University, Dimitar Sasselov, discussed the unprecedented breakthroughs in exoplanetary astronomy, and how they will shed new light on our place in the universe. He coined the term "super-Earth," which refers to rocky planets like Earth, only much larger. A number of such exoplanets have been discovered in the last few years, and recently there's been speculation that there could be billions of such super-Earths in our galaxy alone. While the Kepler Mission has excelled at discovering planets, they tend to be too far from Earth to adequately study their atmospheres and surfaces, he noted. So the next big step will be to discover planets that are closer to us and to look for signatures of life, he continued, adding that there's a proposal for a survey satellite called TESS which could locate planetary targets amongst the nearest stars for detailed viewing by the James Webb telescope (the successor to Hubble). Sasselov also talked about the transit of Venus on June 5th, the only time this planet will be seen moving between the Earth and the Sun this century. Artificial Intelligence: During the last hour, Dr. Brian Goertzel spoke about his work on artificial intelligence (AI) and its various applications.

The search for more exoplanets continues as astronomers look for a so-called "Goldilocks" planet which could be fit to be inhabited by the biochemical likes of us. First, humanity must of course learn how to take of our home planet, but there is a future when humans will go to the stars and colonize the cosmos. Update: NASA says it has found a "Super-Earth" some 600 light years away that is 2.4 times the size of Earth and is in a habitable zone with a presumed surface temperature of some 72 degrees.

Most planets are thought to form through the 'core accretion' process. This process can be probed by comparing the occurrence rates of extrasolar planets of different masses and orbital distances. Until recently, the evidence was limited to massive, Jovian planets. This talk will focus on recent results that probe much smaller planets: 1) the Eta-Earth Survey, a radial velocity planet search that provides a census of nearby extrasolar planets with masses of 3-1000 Earth-masses; and 2) the Kepler mission, which detects transiting planets with sizes down to one Earth radius. We are learning that close-in, 'super-Earth'-size planets are ubiquitous and that the models of planet formation and migration need substantial revision to account for them.

~credits video: youtube.com Astronomers using ESO instruments have discovered a remarkable extrasolar planetary system that has some striking similarities to our own Solar System. At least five planets are orbiting the Sun-like star HD 10180, and the regular pattern of their orbits is similar to that observed for our neighbouring planets. One of the new extrasolar worlds could be only 1.4 times the mass of the Earth, making it the least massive exoplanet ever found. This video podcast explains how these faraway planets were detected and exactly what we know about them. Astronomers using ESO's world-leading HARPS instrument have discovered a planetary system containing at least five planets, orbiting the Sun-like star HD 10180. The researchers also believe the system has two other planets, one of which would have the lowest mass ever found, making the system similar to our own Solar System in terms of the number of planets. Furthermore, the scientists find that the location of the planets follows a regular pattern, as also seen in our own Solar System The team of astronomers used the HARPS spectrograph, attached to ESO's 3.6-metre telescope at La Silla, Chile. HARPS is an instrument with unrivalled stability and great precision, and the world's most successful exoplanet hunter. The astronomers, led by Christophe Lovis from the Geneva Observatory, studied the Sun-like star HD 10180 over a period of six years!

Monash Centre for Astrophysics public lecture series, 29 Mar 2012: Chris Tinney, Australian Professorial Fellow "The Golden Age of Exoplanetary Science" There can be few questions more fundamental for a scientist's research to address than "Is our home here on Earth unique? Or ubiquitous?" Astronomers involved in the search for - and the study of - extra-solar planets are fortunate enough to have this sort of question driving their daily activities. The exoplanets that astronomers have been finding over the last two decades have a bewildering array of properties and architectures - and the vast majority look nothing at all like our Solar System. Nonetheless, the drive to identify systems that look like our own, and to understand how the rest of the systems we have found were actually formed, continues unabated. Chris Tinney will deliver an update on all this work from the front lines.

From then on an artist's impression of exoplanet HD 85512b shows this super-Earth orbiting its Sun. This planet is only one of sixteen super-Earths discovered by the HARPS instrument on the 3.6-metre telescope at ESO's La Silla Observatory, and one of more than 50 new exoplanets discovered during 2011. HD 85512 b is about 3.6 times as massive as the Earth, and may harbor life, since it is located at the edge of the habitable zone around the star, where liquid water can exist.

3 simple methods Exoplanets can be detected beyond our solar system. 1. Transit-A stars luminosity dims slightly due to the object that passes by. 2. Radial velocity- It moves a star from it's position continually, due to the gravitational attraction of other planetary bodies upon it. 3. Coronagraph telescopic attachment and infrared.-A telescopic attachment which allows for a Stars luminosity to be blocked, and other objects in the surrounding area to be infrared You can no longer use the lame argument "We're special because our planet is the correct distance from the star".
