NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory managed Kepler mission development. Kepler-1649c: Earth-Size, Habitable Zone Planet Hides in Plain Sight | NASA Kepler Beyond Planets: Finding Exploding Stars (Type Felt Supernova) NASA Planet Hunter Finds Earth-Size Habitable-Zone World Best
TRAPPIST-1 Planet Lineup - Updated Feb. 2018 This image from an animation shows the merger of two white dwarfs. All the colored planets have been verified.
Kepler-186f resides in the Kepler-186 system about 500 light-years from Earth in the constellation Cygnus. October 3, 2016. The planets in the habitable zone orbiting a star may be suitable for liquid water and supporting life.Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic. Clouds on Hot Jupiters (Illustration) This illustration shows a black hole surrounded by a disk of gas. This is a frame from an animation composed of images from Kepler of the comet. Kepler Planet 1649c Artist's Illustration From Space Water World Artist Concept This artists concept shows what exoplanet Kepler-1649c could look like on its surface. In this case, a giant star 'burp' out a shell of gas and dust about a year before exploding. This artist's concept shows what exoplanet Kepler-1649c could look like on its surface. The bottom graphic shows the relative sizes of the Kepler-18 and its known planets to the Sun and Earth.An artist's illustration of Kepler-35 b, a Saturn-size planet around a pair of sun-size stars, as envisioned by artist Mark A. Garlick. Heartbeat Stars (Artist's Concept) Using data from NASA's Kepler and Spitzer Space Telescopes, this artist's concept shows a star behind a shattered comet. This is a frame from an animation composed of images from Kepler of the comet.

This artist's conception illustrates Kepler-22b, a planet known to comfortably circle in the habitable zone of a sun-like star. This illustration based on computer modeling and data from NASA's Kepler Space Telescope, represents how hot Jupiters of different temperatures and different cloud compositions might appear while flying over the dayside of these planets on a spaceship. This image shows the K2-33 system, and its planet K2-33b, compared to our own solar system, as discovered by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope. The discovery of Kepler-186f confirms that Earth-size planets exist in the habitable zones of other stars and signals a significant step closer to finding a world similar to Earth. Seen in the foreground is Kepler-62f, a super-Earth-size planet in the habitable zone of a star smaller and cooler than the sun, located about 1,200 light-years from Earth in the constellation Lyra. Since Kepler-22B takes 290 days to orbit its sun, it took nearly three Earth years for scientists to confirm that it was a planet. NASA Ames/JPL-Caltech In the left panel, a streak of debris falls toward the disk. Pictured here is an artist's depiction of Kepler-22b, which was the first exoplanet discovered by Kepler to orbit in a star's habitable zone. The planet is the closest to Earth in size and temperature found yet in data from the Kepler space telescope.Image credit: NASA/Ames Research Center/Daniel Rutter With the discovery of an eighth planet, NASA's Kepler-90 system is the first to tie with our solar system in number of planets. This is the first star system found to have multiple transiting planets.An artist's illustration of the extrasolar planets discovered around the star Kepler 11 by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope.This artist's concept illustrates Kepler-16b, the first planet known to definitively orbit two stars -- a real-life Tatooine, from 'Star Wars.' This illustration shows the seven Earth-size planets of TRAPPIST-1.
