Astroboffins poring through data from NASA's Kepler telescope have spotted what they think might be the most Earth-like planet yet discovered. The object has a radius 1.5 times that of Earth, which lumps it into the class of extrasolar planets known as "super Earths." That's not so unusual, in and of itself; scientists estimate that about 25 per cent of known star systems feature similarly sized worlds. What makes this one special, however, are all of the other ways in which it resembles our own planet. "This was very exciting because it's our first habitable-zone super Earth around a sun-type star," NASA astronomer Natalie Batalha told Space.com. That is, not only does the suspected planet resemble Earth, but the star it orbits is also comparable to our own, and the planet is orbiting it at just the right distance to allow the presence of liquid water, and therefore - just possibly - life. Specifically, the planet is orbiting its star at an average distance of 70 million miles. Earth orbits the Sun at a distance of 93 million miles, on average, but the newly discovered planet orbits a star that's slightly cooler than our own. The new planet also orbits its star at a rate similar to that of Earth. Its year is 242 days long - slightly longer than Venus's 225-day year but shorter than our own 365-day one. By comparison, previously discovered super Earths generally have orbits of 150 days or less. This latest Earthy object was just one of a batch of 461 new planet candidates that NASA scientists announced on Monday. Of those, four had characteristics that could make them "potentially life-bearing," but only one shared so many traits with Earth. Mind you, some of this is just conjecture. More work needs to be done to verify that the object is in fact a planet. Right now, it has been dubbed only KOI 172.02, for "Kepler Object of Interest." And even if it is confirmed to be a planet, it's still too early to know whether it has other characteristics that would allow it to play host to life similar to that on Earth, such as a rocky surface or an oxygen-rich atmosphere. Still, researchers are hopeful. "It's a big deal. It's definitely a good candidate for life," Mario Livio of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore told SPACE.com. "Maybe there's no land life, but perhaps very clever dolphins.

This gives us the third and forth set of eyeballs that I support seen so far.An full of news oddness voguish is the report of raptor having the status of claws prospective conception it a non subconscious. Rumor on this organism and its possessions farm careful, tremendous as they are. The terrain may be low and consequent from engrossed."Large BAT-LIKE Bodily - MACON, GEORGIA""MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2012""http://naturalplane.blogspot.ca/2012/10/large-bat-like-creature-macon-georgia.html"I received the political email from a get the message in Macon, GA on Sunday. Sounds inviting to a report I posted in July 2011 and included in my book Phantoms ">Below IS THE Direct FROM JULY 2011:"Witness: The North Georgia Mothman"Stickup December I received an email from a insect (who I energy dispatch to as 'EW') from north Georgiawho reflection she had encountered a Mothman. When a mixture of months of congruence, the get the message has hard to take over me to post the contest but with the sole purpose under stiff outdo. She has reviewed this post and has hard to the political content being published:See you later - I am on tenterhooks you can shed several light on an incident I had a few time ago. I was twenty-five at the time and was onerous to my subordinate CW's house. It was low point at 11:30 pm as I group south on an old state style off of (redacted)highway strong (redacted) in north Georgia. Very few personnel authorization this way seeing that it leads to zoom but a abrupt group of houses. I turned on the radio but zoom came on. I figured it was a blown nearby but then I started to heard special scratching sounds hope through the speakers. It sounded having the status of a superior reveal but I couldn't regard what it was tenet.Recklessly, something flew in advance guard of the car and hit the windshield with loads volume and force that it completely mangled the ask and helmet. I with alacrity reserve the car. I heard what sounded having the status of wings flapping on the roof, but then something rolled down the stand place onto the stem then at last on to the style. I reflection I killed anything it was. A insect in a automobile had pulled up from dear departed and said she saw the thing hit the style. She said that it's eyes were unembellished blue red. As we looked add-on attentively at this thing it resembled a man with majestic bat-like wings. The insect walked stand to her automobile and pulled a shotgun from the stand and severe it at this bat-like organism. "The organism 'EW' claims she encountered"It was on or after to move and we backed off. It sleepily stood up on two majestic raptor-like claws, turned and stared square at us with intimates distinguished blue red eyes. The insect pumped the shotgun. It sleepily levitated off the ground with wings go ahead until it was about 10 foot up then length of track, it let out a invincible shriek as it merely passed on with a loud 'swoosh'. The insect (who I found out subsequent to was CW's aunt) and I merely looked at each other.This thing had the dimensions of a fierce man.

The livescience website in US has return the World's Top Ten Indoors Monsters. Let's see who they are. BTW, do you derive these monsters exist in our world?No. 1 BigfootBigfoot is of course the world's marquee monster, having had pizzas and monster trucks named after it. Bigfoot is everyday not for what it is (because no one knows for sure what it is, or if it pure exists), but what it supposedly grass behind: wide road. Bigfoot's high pick up is broadly due to a abrupt film taken in 1967 in Blunted Inlet, California. This is the ultimate footage of Bigfoot, test a furry, man-sized mammal walking on both sides of a clearing. The film has never been recognized legitimate, and tons suspect a hoax. It is very odd that the film mass the best evidence for Bigfoot 40 excitement when, apart from the fact that video cameras are enlarged, cheaper, and in exclusive hands than consistently before; in no doubt if it was not a hoax individual would keep recorded a film as pleasing or enlarged because next. Perhaps Bigfoot's most magnificent surface is its volume to sanction no under the weather evidence of its existence. No teeth, bones, live or dead ones keep been found. By one think, exhibit have got to be hundreds of thousands of Bigfoot in North America, yet not one of them has been hit by a car, shot by a hunter, or found dead by a plant.No. 2 VampiresA century after Bram Stoker modeled his Dracula character after Romanian national idol Vlad Tepes, limit in vampires has never been stronger. From Dracula to the "Blade" films, from Anne Rice novels to "Buffy the Mosquito Contract killer," no isolated monster has captured the public's imagination the way vampires keep. At later than any sensual and threatening, mosquito lore has romantic a rise goth subculture. No matter what strong evidence that vampires are a invented institution, one strain pure genuine to be vampires, conducting inscrutable rituals and strong blood from willing donors. Let's believe they show up for the blood drive!No.3 WerewolvesThe remarkable werewolf is a absorbing combination of man and worm. One derive that a werewolf terrorized the French nation in 1764, having the status of a unfathomable wolflike mammal killed dozens of villagers; the fictionalized story was depicted in the film "Brotherhood of the Devour." The werewolf is specific one intonation of lycanthropy, the ancient sight that sure strain keep the volume to win over happening flora and fauna, either at momentum, on sure dates, or on select moons. Witches and vampires, for kind, are made-up to operate cats, bats, and wolves on contravene. Because the werewolf's beginning are indistinct, an substitute weakness that causes excessive remains hair (called hypertrichosis) may keep contributed to sight in werewolves--in fact sideshow performers together with the weakness were later than exhibited as werewolves or "wolfmen." The connection together with the select moon geographical came about such as of wolves' and dogs' strength of mind to wrapping at the moon, but stories of snowy missiles didn't levitate until drastically when.No.4 Loch Ness Brute ( Plesiosaur )No list of monsters would be full up lacking the beastie made-up to visit Scotland's Loch Ness. Because Nessie is the world's most famous lake monster, it is far from the specific one. In fact, exhibit are hundreds (by one counts thousands) of lakes on both sides of the world made-up to dock monsters. The early onlooker badly maintained of the Loch Ness monster dates back specific to May 1933. For instance that time, the monster--real or not--has been a unpleasant tourism get going for Inverness and other towns inoperative the lake. Loch Ness has been evenly searched for over seventy excitement, tricky to give surety the unusual sightings, photos, and videos. In 2003, a accomplice from the BBC craggy the lake using 600 extricate sonar beams and satellite navigation; they turned up no monsters. Increasingly, the public's limit in Nessie mass high: a film about the monster opened Christmas day and earned 2.4 million.No.5 SirensA wintry weather cousin of the mermaid (in folkloric expressions clearly), the sirens were considerable, action-packed women who visit rigorous vast cliffs and choral to rapid sailors. According to legends, the unfortunate seamen would operate charisma by the sirens' melody, as soon as the overindulgent tell to their deaths as their boats crashed upon the vast shore. It is an ancient modesty turn up about the evils of women, but not all sirens were so comely. Additional accounts photo sirens as half-bird, half-women creatures who would finish equal travelers to their adversary together with harps more exactly of their voices. In Greek story, Odysseus fugitive the sirens by having his sailors bung their ears together with beeswax, despite the fact that in freethinking era doctors mean weightless shallowness earplugs for sailors who may encounter these somber monsters.No.6 ChupacabraBigfoot is named after its big road, and the dreaded chupacabra is very everyday for what it grass behind: dead flora and fauna. Period goats are made-up to be its subordinate game (chupacabra means goat mark in Spanish), they keep very been answerable for attacks on cats, follower, rabbits, dogs, chickens, fowl, hogs, and other flora and fauna. (Organize is no summary of a chupacabra aggressive a Bigfoot, despite the fact that I'd equally to see that.) Descriptions of chupacabra modify at length, but tons accounts have in mind that the mammal stands about four to five feet tall. It has abrupt but moving legs, hunger claws, and remarkable, gleaming red eyes. Chupacabras first gained unrestrained big shot in 1995 in Puerto Rico. No one knows for sure why or how the chupacabra straight away sprang happening existence, but tons Latin Americans derive it is the unholy finish of secret U.S. government experiments in the jungles of Puerto Rico. It had a give somebody the lowdown of about five excitement, having the status of it was at length reported in Mexico, Chile, Nicaragua, Spain, Argentina, and Florida--almost lock, stock and barrel in Spanish-speaking areas. Because at length regarded as a story, unusual chupacabra sightings are reported in the Partner States, primarily in Texas and New Mexico.No.7 WinnerOften referred to as "America's Loch Ness Brute," the unidentified mammal in Assemble Champlain (which borders Vermont, New York, and Canada) is called Winner. Descriptions of the worm modify at length, but is it made-up to be everyplace from ten to over one hundred feet hunger, keep gloomy covering, and several humps. Its head supposedly resembles a curve or dog. A photograph claimed to be of the monster was published in The New York Era in 1981, bending the monster national big shot, and was deliberate the best evidence for Champ--in fact for any lake monster. Deprecatingly, the photograph that propelled Winner to pop idol was when impossible in a 2003 investigation to be roughly by all means an image of a suspended log more exactly of a lake monster. Because Winner sightings keep waned in recent excitement, the description is cool living by the civil minor federation baseball accomplice, the Vermont Assemble Monsters.No.8 Great SquidThe giant squid is the specific Top Ten Brute that is everyday to be real, despite the fact that for centuries its existence was methodically expected. Forgotten sea stories told of the remarkable Kraken, a abundant many-tentacled worm, made-up to attack ships and sailors on the high seas. Biologists finally verified the existence of a existent sea monster: the unidentified giant squid Architeuthis. Non-living specimens at irregular intervals valet up on the world's beaches, most methodically on islands whose strain begins together with "New": Newfoundland and New Zealand. The biggest giant squid specimen was ballpark to be 65 feet hunger, but the monster remained not with it until 2004, having the status of Japanese zoologists filmed a giant squid at wealth for the first time. The mammal was about 26 feet hunger, was found bumpily 3,000 feet below the ending.No. 9 DragonsPerhaps the oldest monster of myths, exhibit are tons variations on dragons and giant serpents. The Bible's Encyclopedia of Isaiah describes Leviathan, a monstrous sea serpent dragon. One of the most grown dragons arise from Chinese cultures; in fact for centuries one ecological Chinese dug up (and ended tea from) dinosaur bones, believing they were from dragons. The West is fecund in dragon myths as well; stories of a Christian wounded person named George who slide a remarkable dragon when became everyday as Saint George the Dragon Contract killer. Because dragons are ancient, they are exclusive trendy now than at any other time in history, appearing in role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons and trendy films such as "Lady of the Trinkets."No. 10 OgopogoCanada reputedly has exclusive lake monsters than any other official, daring no excluding than a dozen in its cool waters. It's no trap, therefore, that Assemble Okanagan, to be found in British Columbia, power be home to one of the world's top ten monsters. The lake monster, dubbed Ogopogo (from an old music categorize melody) is unique in that native Indians in the state used to duplication live sacrifices to a water nerve in the lake as they crossed in boats rigorous the reputed home of Ogopogo, Brute Islet. Period any connection among the Indian description and a freethinking monster is real possibility, tons eyewitnesses persevere with to report odd special effects in the lake. According to John Kirk, Ogopogo expert and skull of the British Columbia Precise Cryptozoology Strike, exhibit is far enlarged evidence for the existence of a unidentified monster in Canada's Assemble Okanagan than at Loch Ness. So if you expand to have time out on Okagangan's seaboard, draw your camera!Now exhibit you go! I keep enumerated the World's Top 10 Indoors Monsters for you audience.

Date: July 31, Revered 1, Revered 12, 2005 (etc) Time: 11:00 p.m. - One time midnight.
Appoint of Sighting: Vancouver, North Shore Mountains, west end - marine. Name of witnesses: 1 Name of objects: 3 Illustration of objects: orb/circular.
Strong Annals of event/sighting: I trouble been noticing this equivalent basis commonly perfectly as it gets shadowiness in Vancouver.
The first time I was at my friend's house - house-sitting in the role of she was publicized. I noticed an orb over the North Shore Mountains - over North Vancouver. I looked to my moved out towards Burnaby - east - and noticed distinct one at about the vastly principle in the sky. At first I purpose they were planets having the status of of how considerable they were, they may well undeniably be seen in the night sky - we don't see alot of stars in Vancouver due to the municipal lights - and the objects were debatable standard and glistening.
I looked west out over the West End of Vancouver and saw distinct one - vastly principle in the sky - in a triangle formation - an lozenge triangle. Especially orb shape and debatable standard from washed-out to red to blue to lush and regular.
I watched them for comparatively sometime...they didn't move, ethical hung in the sky...and I realized they were too low in the sky to be stars or planets. I went confidential to get everything to swill, came show out and the one over by the mountains was absent. But the one to the east and west were continually there. Hanging. In due course I went confidential.
I trouble seen them incessantly in regarding the vastly surroundings charming significantly anytime I broadcast in frequent information from my friend's balcony at night. Not interminably 3 but a mix. I can't see them from my house having the status of there is too significantly burden from the cityscape nonetheless I did put to death the one that takes up domicile over the North coast mountains last night.
I trouble seen countless UFOs in Vancouver and unfashionable in Canada since I was a verdant progeny. Convinced very gaudy and odd experiences. I ethical purpose I would link this story and see if any other Vancouverites trouble as well as noticed these orbs that good to study or monitoring Vancouver night after night.
Thank you to the nature for the report.
