Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System - 2 views

  •  
    'The Exoplanet Exploration Program (ExEP) is responsible for implementing NASA's plans for the discovery and understanding of planetary systems around nearby stars. ExEP plays an important function in exoplanet research, by laying out a long-term view of the entire field and charting out a strategic timeline of missions and instruments."

the physics arXiv blog » Blog Archive » The puzzle of planet formation - 0 views

  •  
    "At the heart of the problem is the fascinating question: why are all the planets different? The ones in our solar system ought to have formed out of the same stuff at more or less the same time and yet no two are alike. And now the extrasolar planets seem to be demonstrating a similar variety."

New Hubble Pictures Suggest Milky Way Fell Together - Science News - 2 views

  • A preliminary analysis of elderly stars in the Milky Way appears to strike a blow against the prevailing theory of galaxy formation. The study suggests that several large and seemingly disparate chunks of the Milky Way galaxy formed at the same time from the collapse of a single blob of gas and dust.That’s in direct contrast to the leading galaxy-formation scenario, which holds that the Milky Way and other galaxies began small and grew bit by bit for the most part, gravitationally acquiring intergalactic gas and dust and merging with galaxies in their immediate neighborhood.

SciAstro.Net -- the SCIence of ASTROnomy - 0 views

  •  
    SciAsto.Net is a network of amateur astronomers in love with the SCIence of ASTROnomy. Our roots go back to the mid 1990s and the astronomy newsgroup sci.astro (still in existance). A few active members decided to start an IRC chat group on the undernet server. Spearheading that effort was Chris Sheehan, Bob Hale

SETILive - 1 views

  •  
    SETILive is taking the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) directly to you by presenting radio frequency signals LIVE from the SETI Institute's Allen Telescope Array (ATA) while it's pointed at stars that, based on Kepler exoplanet discoveries, have the best chances of being home to an alien civilization. We'll also be putting you "in the loop" where if enough of you see a potential extraterrestrial (ET) signal in the same data, then within minutes, the ATA will be interrupted and sent back to take a second look. The data you see will be from frequencies where human-made Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) crowds them and we believe the human eye will have a better chance than SETI's computer algorithms to find ET signals there.
